High up in the trunk of a pine tree, the red-cockaded woodpecker digs a hole with its sharp beak. Sap flows from the tree and collects around the hole. Because the sap is sticky like glue, it keeps enemies such as snakes away. In this and other holes in nearby trees, a family of nine birds will live quite happily.
