A video posted to YouTube by user GrumpaDirt shows the woodpecker pecking away Tuesday at the metal electrical box on a power line hanging from a utility pole in Victoria.

It was not reported whether the woodpecker was unlucky enough to be successful in its attempt. Read More Woodpecker adorably pecks away at animal control officer's neck
