On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with Paul Bannick, author and photographer of "Woodpecker: A Year in the Life of North American Woodpeckers." The book will be published September 1, 2025 by the Braided River imprint of Mountaineers Books in Seattle, Washington.

Mr. Bannick is the author of several previous award-winning nature books. This new title is lushly illustrated with dozens of photos taken by Mr. Bannick. Meanwhile, the text elevates the fascinating story of woodpeckers to its rightful place at the center of any conversation – or any deep thinking – about how humans and wildlife share the earth.
