How to spot
Look for its barred underparts and olive-green back, often against mossy tree trunks. Males have a red nape. Listen for its soft, high-pitched calls and less vigorous drumming.

This woodpecker often forages by gleaning insects from moss and lichen-covered branches, showcasing an adaptation to the high-humidity environment of its montane habitat.
