Looks like he has a little red dunce cap on!
And he's serious about getting to the food!

That's one BIG bird! We often hear the pileateds hammering away at the dead trees near our place in WV -- they ARE impressive! He's so big that the tail prop doesn't work very well!

Kind of like our acorn woodpecker. Ours has the red cap too but is whiter in the face. It pecks holes into the trees and places an acorn in the hole, hence the name.

When Kathi and Rob were in Muir Woods with me, we heard a Pileated, but never caught sight of it. Magnificent bird.
