I found this woodpecker up on this pole working on a nest cavity. a few days later i went back to check on them. I found they had a deep cavity made into the pole. Now they are nesting.
The Male, see the red under his eyes

Very nice photos! Especially #1. But I like the look of satisfaction on 2

Wonderful!! We have them around here because I hear them often, but I never see them. How lucky you are!

Wow! he made quite a nest for himself. Mine just chop holes in the trees looking for food.

Very cool. I see them often around here but have never been lucky enough to see the nest. Great set!
