Description
Wondrous Woodpeckers is a hand-illustrated accordion-fold zine celebrating the charismatic woodpeckers of Illinois. From the bold red head of the pileated to the subtle speckling of the downy, this pocket-sized guide features detailed drawings of the state’s most iconic tree-tappers. Tucked among the pages are two hidden illustrations—rare sightings for the keen-eyed reader—depicting woodpeckers I’ve yet to encounter in the wild. Whether you’re a birding enthusiast or just curious about the drummers of the forest, this zine invites you to slow down, look closely, and wonder.
