The Caribbean Woodpecker (Melanerpes superciliaris) is a species of woodpecker native to the Caribbean region, including Cuba. The Caribbean Woodpecker is a medium-sized woodpecker with a distinctive black-and-white pattern on its plumage. It has a black head with a white supercilium (eyebrow stripe) extending from the base of the bill to the neck. The back and wings are black with white barring, and the underparts are white with black streaking. Males and females have similar plumage, but males may have a red crown patch. The Caribbean Woodpecker is found in various habitats across the Caribbean region, including forests, woodlands, mangroves, and urban areas. It is relatively common in its range and is often encountered in parks and gardens. Like other woodpeckers, the Caribbean Woodpecker uses its strong bill to excavate cavities in trees for nesting and roosting. It feeds primarily on insects, including beetles, ants, and larvae, which it gleans from tree bark using its long tongue. It also consumes fruits and berries, particularly during the non-breeding season.
