Habitat: The White-backed Woodpecker is the largest and rarest of the black and white woodpeckers. Since a few years only, individual breeding pairs have been observed in the east of Switzerland. Because of its special habitat requirements – natural forests with a great number of dying and dead trees – the occurrence of the White-backed Woodpecker is limited to remote and inaccessible forests. It has secretive habits and is most likely observed during the courtship period. [Link]
