Pileated woodpecker

Bloomington, MN

His favorite spot on the burr oak tree. Took this during the Great Backyard Bird Count, through the back patio door. He's a real handsome guy. Haven't seen his girl in a while. Maybe she's off building her nest...

I'd respond via email, but you didn't leave an email address. I'm south of 106th, off Overlook Drive. So it's pretty close to the river, and I think the habitat here is pretty good for them.

Wow! We live near 86th and France and see one just a couple times a winter. Thanks for sharing. Do you live near the river? Jan Weaver
