Pileated Woodpecker
I had heard we had them in the neighborhood but today I finally saw them in our backyard! During breakfast Kate noticed one pileated woodpecker.
A few minutes later Erik saw the second one.

Aren't they cool? We had one that frequently visited a tree behind our house there- to the point it created enough damage to it that the upper 40 feet or so came crashing down during a strong wind! My understanding is that the woodpecker is only going after the carpenter ants that would've killed the tree eventually anyway. We see them regularly here too.
