I finally captured 2 Pileated Woodpeckers sharing a meal of suet in my backyard today!
They looked like they were kissing.............the female is on the right and the male on the left with a touch more red on his face.
Thank you for your comments and favs for yesterday photo "Framed by Nature".
This has to be a rare sighting! What a capture! You've got to be just thrilled to have not only seen this but to catch a picture of the two of them. Congrats!
@mzzhope hope they are eating suet (fat) I got It at the grocery store. This is what the butcher throws away so they give it to people who want to feed the birds. My husband nailed it to a piece of wood and it only took a couple of days for them to find it! Now they visit 2 or 3 times a day, they are a very interesting bird to watch. And very pre-historic looking!
Wow! I saw this on Favorite Fav or your own project and had to come over to comment and fav! This is an amazing capture. I've only seen these guys way up in a tree. Definitely a little jealous. I've only heard them this spring, haven't seen one yet.
