Birds of Kentucky: Was it a woodhen which made chips fly? Three types of woodpeckers in one sighting reminded watcher of the big bird which could spray chips in all directions, a bird remembers being called a Woodhen By Fay W. McKinley While watching birds in my backyard today I observed three different types of woodpeckers. This got me to thinking about birds I had seen before that were called wood hens. These birds were always pecking at a rotting stump or tree trunk. They were probably looking for worms or bugs. The last one I saw was at least two or three years ago. Can anyone tell me the proper name for this bird? I cannot find a picture the internet or in any of the bird books I have of the bird when I look under the category of woodpeckers - so maybe it is something else. This bird could send chips of wood flying in every direction. I once accused my son and his friend of making a mess in the yard by using their pocket knifes on a stump. They denied doing it and I didn't believe them until I caught the bird in the act. - Fay W. McKinley This story was posted on 2012-01-11 05:03:59
