There are over two hundred species of woodpecker worldwide. Of these, three species of woodpecker are found in the UK.
Woodpeckers are small to large birds, mostly boldly-patterned, sharing features such as a chisel-like bill, round head, long tongue, stiff tail and two toes facing forwards and two back to give a better grip on rounded branches.
