Shows selection of nest site by a pair of black woodpeckers, digging nest cavity in a tree trunk, and then care of young through various stages to fledging. Both parents participate. One scene illustrates pre-emption of partly constructed nest by a pair of predacious birds, but woodpeckers regain nest after intruders leave.
