WoodpeckerArt Aia - Creatives / In / Residence

Woodpecker

In general, humans consider woodpeckers in a favourable light. However, their activities are not universally appreciated. Many woodpecker species are known to excavate holes in buildings, fencing and utility poles, creating health and/or safety issues for affected buildings and utility poles. Such activity is very difficult to discourage and can be costly to repair even at Art Aia.
