Corresponding with the latest installment of the Canadian Wildlife Federations' "wildly" popular Hinterland Who's Who vignettes, the Mint honours the Downy Woodpecker on a painted 2008 25-cent coin.
Instantly recognizable by the hammering sound it makes when perforating tree trunks in search of its next meal, the image of this woodland noisemaker appears in full colour thanks to artist Arnold Nogy of Coldwater, Ontario.
This coin is limited to a worldwide mintage of 25,000.
