Loudly.

The woodpecker's strong, pointed beak acts as both a chisel and a crowbar to remove bark and find hiding insects. It has a very long tongue, up to four inches in some species - with a glue-like substance on the tip for catching insects. While most birds have one toe pointing back and three pointing forward on each foot, woodpeckers have two sharply clawed toes pointing in each direction to help them grasp the sides of trees and balance while they hammer. Many woodpecker species also have stiffened tail feathers, which they press against a tree surface to help support their weight.

A woodpecker is a bird that uses its sharp beak to bore into the bark of trees to expose edible insects, and in some cases expose tree sap. It can use its powerful neck muscles to drill into a tree with 16 or more pecks per second, creating a characteristic chattering sound.

In the anime Deadman's Wonderland the main character is often referred to as wood pecker, and they have a little song about a poor wood pecker with poison in its beak, that kills all that it touches.

And in the book Holes they also have a little rhyme about a wood pecker, but I don't know what either of them mean.
