None of those images illustrate a protective purpose for the tongue, only that its so long it wraps around the entire head. Cite 1 piece of evidence that the tongue is for protective rather than feeding mechanisms (edit-) or change the title please
I watched a documentary about this. The tongue acts as a cushion preventing the woodpecker from crushing its skull while pecking.

It is a crime that this thread was not started by Pecker.

Pecked and he pecked, 'til his pecker was sore.
