“…In the present study, the author studied the drumming activities of Japanese pygmy woodpecker (Dendrocopos kizuki) in the Satoyama landscape of Japan. The Japanese pygmy woodpecker is endemic to Japan but only few studies have reported the biology and behaviour [1][2][3][4][5][6] of the species. To illustrate how acoustic patterns can re ect individual characteristics, author adopted dawn recordings of an individual Japanese pygmy woodpecker over an observation period of ve years.…”

The Japanese pygmy woodpecker (Dendrocopos kizuki), called “kogera” in Japanese, normally drums on trees. However, during observations conducted over seven years in the Satoyama landscape of Japan, the author discovered the unique behaviour of a Japanese pygmy woodpecker individual. The woodpecker often preferred to drum on metal plates of telephone poles to seek the metal’s specific high-pitched sound. This case study suggests that landscape diversity can translate into behavioural diversity within species.
