[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 134316, member: 367"] Are pileated woodpeckers common in your area of ND ? We have tons of woodpeckers but the first time I saw a pileated was 3 years ago and they have been seldom seen since until this fall and I think we have a breeding pair. I have heard them , They sound like a 50 caliber gatling gun out in the woods when they are making hole compared to smaller woodpeckers This year they started coming into the feeder and they can eat 1/3 of a suit block in a couple of minutes, They are spooky as a whitetail but I am finally getting a few pictures.
