Excavating Company Saves Woodpecker Nest With Duct Tape

August 6, 2019

An excavating company helped out a family of birds after realizing there was a nest in one the trees they had cut down.

Ormond Bushey and Sons cut down the limb of a tree but then discovered there was a nest of baby woodpeckers in it.

Instead of of saying too bad and walking away they came up with a solution to save the babies: they attached the nest to the tree with duct tape.

Their plan worked as they watched the mother woodpecker return to her remodeled home to feed her babies.
