Sometimes called a “flying checkerboard,” the Red-headed Woodpecker is a stunning but infrequent sight in eastern North America, where its open-country habitat has declined. It’s the only North American woodpecker that stores and then covers its food, like insects or acorns, underneath bark. Bird Collective will donate 20% of the profits from this patch to support Alabama Audubon’s conservation work in a state where Red-headed Woodpeckers remain year-round residents.
All embroidered bird patches have an iron-on backing, but the adhesive is temporary. For durability, we recommend sewing or using a permanent, flexible fabric glue. Dimensions: 1.8" wide x 2" high.
