The top hole is the nest hole. It too a very long time for the pair of red headed woodpeckers to make it home. The hole below was a test hole I guess. There are several others in nearby dead branches.

How lovely!

hard to get a feel for size from this shot, I guess the holes are big enough for birds!

Wow, very cool.

Those holes are almost perfectly shaped. Wonderful capture.

@pusspup Good point. A bit of research says that the entrance hole is 2 inches in diameter (5.08 cm) and nest area is 8-16 inches deep (20.32-40.64 cm)

@sakkasie They work hard and did lots of "test" holes. Thanks for taking the time
