Woodpecker's tongue is so long that it wraps around its skull to protect its brain from injury while pecking trees.

Woodpecker can hide 50 thousand acorns in the bark of a tree....it must always be on the lookout for hungry thieves.

They have a special head! The tongue wraps around to protect it:

Nature knowledge: A woodpecker's tongue wraps around its head. When a woodpecker pecks, these tongue bones are retracted and stabilize the skull, providing musculo-sketal support. These also protect its brain from over 1000g of force when it's hammering away by absorbing the shock.

Nature knowledge: A Woodpecker preparing for winter. First he finds a dead tree and starts making holes for the acorns. Each hole is made very thoughtfully, because if the hole is large other birds can easily steal the acorn. If the hole is narrow, the nut can break and deteriorate. By the end of summer, the Woodpecker's "jewelry" works ends, by this time the acorns ripen and take their places in the tree. The trunk of a large tree can hold about 50,000 acorns, allowing the bird a satisfying winter.

Woodpeckers peck up to 20 times/sec or a total of 8-12,000/day, without ever getting a headache... For building nest,establishing territory or to attract mates, they peck on & on. They have tounges that wrap around their skulls to protect it from damage.
