1st time sighting one of these.. Pileated Woodpecker. Huge bird. Could not believe my luck. At first I thought it was mechanical because it was just too... too perfect. And, in a residential neighborhood.
One of natures wonders, good job capturing him.

Aren't they amazing!!! Great shot by the way :) I've seen one in the 19 yrs we have lived here and I was in awe and sure wished I had a camera with me at the time. Wonderful job with your camera.

It's a feat to luck out like this, isn't it? It sure makes one's day!
Btw., in editor, if you separate the background from the foreground and darken the background a bit, Woody would come out much better, ie, wouldn't be blending into the background... :thumbup:

I've got one that comes around now and again I've been chasing. I hear him - or them - all the time, and I've gotten a few very lousy photos. One of these days...
That's a really nice shot!
