Back with the Pileated Woodpecker @ Christmas Bird Count at Presque Isle State Park. Lucky this beautiful bird landed so close (+ very occupied with foraging) right at the Niagara Boat Launch parking area.
Rainy weather yesterday and overnight in Erie County, Pennsylvania (ok birding conditions until the rain picked up), unseasonably warm. Today’s forecast: potential for heavy lake effect snow. Rather a rollercoaster this season so far!
Wow! What a bird! Looks like woody woodpecker! Great shots, and it didn’t even attack you! 🙂
Always great to see Pileated Woodpecker, and unlikely to attack humans, yes 😉 Probably Woody was modeled after Pileated Woodpecker
