# Event Details - **Event Name**: Paul Bannick presents his new book – Woodpecker: A Year in the Life of North American Woodpeckers - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 13 Dec, 2025 at 07:00 pm - **Event Description**: Woodpeckers are the heart of North American forests in many ways. Their distinctive drumming sounds out a familiar rhythm, while their presence supports owls and a myriad other creatures. They have evolved in ways that make them ecologically critical to forest health, serving as keystone species in a variety of wooded habitats across the continent. In this new presentation, Paul explores the often secret lives of woodpeckers from Alaska’s boreal forests to the oak woodlands of the West and Midwest and from the ribbon of Ponderosa Pine habitats that stretches from British Columbia through much of the Western states until they transition in southern Arizona to the Sierra Madre pine-oak that forms the spine of Mexico. Paul also explores the diversity in arid ecosystems straddling the US-Mexico border and the wet tropical habitats from Florida through the Caribbean Islands and southeastern Mexico. Through first-hand experiences, more than 200 never-before published photographs and the latest science, Paul examines woodpeckers in every season: their courtship and nest selection in spring; life in the nest during summer; fledging and gaining independence in autumn; and the challenges of surviving the winter. Paul also takes a closer look at the most important woodpecker habitats in North America and what we can do to protect them. Paul is both the author and photographer of five books including two best-selling bird books, Owl: A Year in the Lives of North American Owls and The Owl and The Woodpecker, Encounters with North America’s Most Iconic Birds as well as “Snowy Owl: A Visual Natural History” and “Great Gray Owl: A Visual Natural History” Paul’s photography won awards from several prestigious contests, including those hosted by Audubon Magazine and the International Conservation Photography Awards. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/ashland/paul-bannick-presents-his-new-book-woodpecker-a-year-in-the-life-of-north-american-woodpeckers/200029207928158 - **Event Categories**: health-wellness, art, literary-art, contests - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 4 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Ashland - **state**: OR - **country**: United States - **location**: 290 East Main St, Ashland, OR, United States, Oregon 97520 - **lat**: 42.19534 - **long**: -122.71165 - **full address**: 290 East Main St, Ashland, OR, United States, Oregon 97520 ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Paul Bannick presents his new book – Woodpecker: A Year in the Life of North American Woodpeckers - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/ff08b007762db4ad1c4b1357d7d35c79373b38f0a5b2debe422bea6ab63022a8-rimg-w1200-h682-dcffffff-gmir?v=1765335143 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Paul Bannick presents his new book – Woodpecker: A Year in the Life of North American Woodpeckers being held? - **A:** Paul Bannick presents his new book – Woodpecker: A Year in the Life of North American Woodpeckers takes place on Sat, 13 Dec, 2025 at 07:00 pm to Sat, 13 Dec, 2025 at 07:00 pm at 290 East Main St, Ashland, OR, United States, Oregon 97520. - **Q**: Who is organizing Paul Bannick presents his new book – Woodpecker: A Year in the Life of North American Woodpeckers? - **A:** Paul Bannick presents his new book – Woodpecker: A Year in the Life of North American Woodpeckers is organized by Bloomsbury Books. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
