Pileated Woodpecker

I had just put out some bird seed and peanuts for the squirrel and maybe a bluejay and as soon as I turned around there were two pileated woodpeckers on the feeder, this is the female. I was trying to capture them together but the female was on the snow eating the seed and then the male flew away! Can you see her tongue sticking out??

Thanks for all the nice comments on my squirrel from yesterday they are greatly appreciated!

Is that her tongue or is she happy to see you? LOL. Hopefully, this means a nest isn't too far behind. Great to see.
