Let's try this again!! Mrs. Pileated: Hey, what is going on down there.

Sorry for the problem with no image or poor image with original post.  For some reason the color space changed, and the image looked horrible.   



This female pileated was looking down at her mate having a disagreement with an intruding male.  Taken last evening.

Is that woodpecker your pet? Are you its human?

How about some photos of the Thrush Duck for a change?

David:

This isn't the pileated that I posted earlier.  May be its mate however!  They are indeed spooky birds.  The last time I had a chance with them was >10 years ago, and I live in the middle of the woods!

Yes, but what about the Thrush Duck? We have a thread here about Moon Equipped. Why not the Thrush Duck?



Where is everybody? Why am I the only fool posting.

Randy,

Great photo! I like woodpeckers. I hear them from time to time where I live, like this morning, but rarely see them.

Please keep the photos coming!
