Hello all,
Thanks to Prashanth for digging deeper into the scope of my interest in woodpecker lore. I am writing a book on North American woodpeckers, but I am doing a chapter on folklore and human "uses" and will include info from across the globe. I would be delighted to hear woodpecker stories from all regions. Let me know also if there are certain key references I can look for online or in the larger libraries here.

Thanks again,
Steve Shunk

Dear Steve,

I am working with some tribal people in South India and there is a lot of lore on woodpeckers with the tribals here. But, which is the geographical area of interest?

REgards,
Prashanth
