The juvenile pileated has got used to me now and stays just a 5 or 6 feet away while I put some food out for her, yes its a female. Young pileated ( photo / image / picture from Kildale's Garden ) _________________ Have a look at MY NATURE SITE

She's posed for you in just the right place hasn't she? She must have known that landing on that tree trunk would show her off to her best advantage. _________________

I think you're right Eileen! She's a cover-girl. I am not familiar with this bird... it looks like a large bird. Is it, Kildale? _________________ Daisybeans/MaryAnn "Once the relation between poetry and the soil is well established in the mind, all growing things are endowed with more than material beauty." -Elizabeth Lawrence

This is a very nice shot of the woodpecker. How nice that it isn't too shy of you. _________________ Sjoerd http://www.volkstuindersvereniginghoornenomstreken.nl/Page11.html

It is nice when they become used to you. It is a big bird, about 19 inches long. _________________ Have a look at MY NATURE SITE
