Sapsucker sap wells


As I have noted in my posts about the Yellow-bellied and Williamson's Sapsuckers, there is evidence of their feeding on trees in the form of sap wells. This pic shows a few sapsucker holes in a Scots pine tree and droplets of sap that have leaked out. When they feed on trees that do not produce a lot of sap like pine trees do, I find the holes they have made. SeEtta
