Pileated came to visit

The female "dinosaur bird" (as my wife calls them) was back at the feeders this morning. Tight crops to keep the feeders out of the frame.

Thanks Randy. There’s a male/female pair that frequent the easement behind my property. They hardly ever visit when I’m ready with the camera. This female stayed quite a while this morning. Love watching them and hearing their calls. Kinda “George of the Jungle” sounding.

Good looking birds and you captured them very well Mike.

Good ones. I especially like the first one - view of face and softness shown.

Great set Mike.
Well done.
