Can't Keep a Good Man Out

Check how he's gotten his bill inside the wire to peck away at the utility pole. This pileated woodpecker isn't about to be stopped. Shooting straight up into the sky is why this is so blue.

Wow, he must be determined, especially going through that wire like that. Like the blue background and sunshine on the side like that.

Great capture!

Beautiful capture. I had to smile at this woodpecker pecking away at the utility pole through the wire mesh.

[Tony]

Persistent little bird, nice shot with all that blue sky

[Rick Schies]

Quite rough looking this morning

They peck on metal pipes as well at my house. I've heard it's a territorial thing, as much as anything else.

I love, love these Woodpeckers - so gorgeous! Nice capture!
