Pileated Woodpecker

A pair of woodpeckers were visiting the trees in my backyard. I love their call and their wonderful colors. Seeing them makes me think of a Woody the Woodpecker musical figurine that my mom has. It was a magical item that would instantly calm my daughter when she was a baby. Here is another view http://www.pbase.com/etfitz/image/75967516

Really well done, Elaine. What a beautiful creature he is.

What delightful big birds they are! You are fortunate to have them visit your backyard and get those two excellent images of those hard to photograph birds. It's tough to 'freeze' that bobbing head! Very nice!
Regards, Dick:)

Wonderful. I've tried to photograph one of these at Lake Martin last week and in the Smokies today without any luck. You got a great capture;
