BIG WOODPECKER - A female Pileated Woodpecker perches at the very top of a dead spruce tree. The largest North American woodpecker, Pileated Woodpeckers, have experienced a surge in population in recent years. We have a resident pair (the male has a red mustache) that we see somewhat frequently - but we hear them much more often, and ALWAYS before we see them.

Best photo of one I've never seen, although I've heard them..

Proof positive that birds are the present form of dinosaurs. I used theme regularly on a pine tree. Eventually I learned why when it collapsed and brushed the garage. It was full of ants.
