Journal Article
Forest habitat loss, fragmentation, and red-cockaded woodpecker populations
TL;DR: Habitat loss was negatively associated with woodpecker group size in small populations that had relatively isolated clusters but not in a larger, more dense population and cutting patterns also may affect the amount of foraging habitat available to a family group.
Journal Article
Cavity tree selection by red-cockaded woodpeckers in relation to tree age
TL;DR: The current average age of cavity trees on these sites (85-130 yrs) may not provide optimum cavity trees for this endangered species, and the hypothesis that Red-cockaded Woodpeckers preferentially select older trees is supported.
Journal Article
Red-cockaded woodpeckers vs rat snakes: the effectiveness of the resin barrier
TL;DR: Experimental data is reported supporting the hypothesis that cavity protection behavior, specifically when this behavior results in co- pious fresh resin accumulation adjacent to cavity entrances, significantly reduces the ability of rat snakes to climb Red-cockaded Woodpecker cavity trees.
