It's spring time in Alberta, so let's celebrate with a poem about nature. Between the time when I wrote the episode and recorded it, all the snow melted!
In this episode we share some marvelous facts about woodpeckers, as well as a poem. We talk about the woodpecker's long tongue, its zygodactylic toes, and the fact that its brain doesn't shake around. But here's another neat thing: woodpeckers have three eye-lids! Not only do they have an upper and lower eyelid, but they also have a transparent eyelid that goes across the entire eye. It's called the Nicitating eyelid. I supposed it's handy when bark and woodchips go flying in all directions.
