Sue StoneAnd once again a pileated woodpecker came to our suet feeder. Two days in a row! Maybe she'll become a regular. I am so glad we put a long tail to that feeder. Pileateds are big birds and like to brace their tails against something when they feed. And this one is definitely long enough. Might be able to post a pic later.
Shawnster_P ☕️@knittingknots I’d be interested in seeing a picture of that. We mostly get the smaller downy. Occasionally a bigger one, but maybe that is why.
@Shawnster_P We get downies and hairies every day. But the pileated is a newcomer. Hubs managed a snapshot through the window:
@knittingknots that’s perfect, thanks.
Marc@knittingknots @Shawnster_P are they amazing, and huge! We get them periodically and are in awe every time. #birds #woodpecker #piliated
@nyc2msp @Shawnster_P Yes indeed they're big. Always surprising when they drop by to eat.
