Pileated Woodpecker.

12-7-13 VERMONT: Today we had snow flurries, sun, colder temps and a bit of wind from the northwest. Bally is now Invisible Fence trained.

We saw the Pileated Woodpecker again this afternoon. She was in the apple tree for a few minutes. I got some pix through the window and a short video that is up on Facebook. Males have a red moustache and red forehead, but she doesn’t. These are big birds about the size of crows.


There's an apple in the beak. Red mustache is absent.

Forehead is grayish.

Female adult.
