THIS IS FOR MRSRATBAG. THIS GUY HAS BEEN AVOIDING ME NOW FOR OVER A YEAR. I THINK THE TREE WILL FALL BEFORE I GET THE SHOT I WANT.

that is a wonderful capture of this pileated woodpecker--they are very skittish...we had them around our house while i was growing up, and i gotta tell you, when they started hammering on something, it sounded like a jackhammer pounding on those poor trees ;) sometimes they even tried to do a number on our cedar shingled house ;D

lol...hope the tree will be still standing when you get your shot...smile...and you already got a fine one of this very elusive birds... I did not, althought they come to my fathers balcony, but as soon as you even move the curtain they are gone...

He's a beauty! Don't you wish you could tell him that you only want his picture and it won't hurt? Good luck in your pursuit!

I know just what you mean! There have been very few around here and I've yet to get the shot I want! This one has certainly work that tree over but you got a terrific shot of him!!!

Nice looking red crest. Our woodpeckers, down here are not that colorful, only have a few red feathers on top. Looks like he has been working all over that tree. Dana P

Wow.... I can't even get a shot of the shy and elusive downy woodpecker, and here you have gotten a Pileated Woodpecker!! I'd love just to see one of these, much less get a shot of one!! Excellent incentive to keep trying for the shot you want. :-)
