Acorns weighing more than 300 kilograms from the wall of a private house, may have been the work of a woodpecker, California, USA
米カリフォルニア州ソノマ郡でこのほど、民家の壁の中から大量のドングリが見つかる出来事がありました
In Sonoma County, California, a large number of acorns were recently found in the walls of a house.
It is believed that a friend of the woodpecker called ”acorn woodpecker” stocked up
民家の住民は寝室の壁から虫が出てくるのを発見し、害虫駆除業を営むニック・カストロさんの元を訪れました
Residents of a private house discovered insects coming out of the bedroom wall and visited Mr. Nick Castro, who runs a pest control business.
Investigation revealed that this was a mealworm, feeding on a large amount of acorns that two acorn woodpeckers seemed to have collected.
カストロさんが壁に１０センチ平方の小さな穴を空けたところ、ドングリがあふれ出てきました
When Castro made a small 10 cm square hole in the wall, acorns overflowed.
After that, the acorn ”came out without stopping”
「信じられないような量だった」とカストロさん
”It was an unbelievable amount,” Castro said.
The acorns are believed to have been collected over the past two to five years and Castro estimates they weigh at least 317 kilograms.
