This species of bird uses trees for winter storage, which are called granary trees and may have up to 50,000 holes, each filled with an acorn. The acorn woodpecker’s main food source is insects, but acorns serve as key nutritional backup, allowing the birds to make it through the winter.

    The pic is giving me an amount of trypophobia I didn’t know I had

    Tbh it’s more about the bumps rather than the holes
