Looking after it is partly a matter of not harming the birds, and partly a matter of looking after the forests--the area in question is mostly regrown after extensive logging in the early to mid-20th century.
That's what I was thinking. Looking after the woodpecker will hopefully have a knock-on effect of protecting the forests, and consequently all the other species that live there.
I just hope you don't have any stupid egg-collectors rushing in to find any nests, like they do with the rare ospreys in Scotland.
Next thing you know, they'll be finding a flock of passenger pigeons.

We have to make sure we look after it better this time round. Could do wonders for local conservation efforts.
