The last of the shots from Saturday..

Great series. Looks like he's getting a little grumpy on that last one. Too much modeling? TF

Fantastic series, and like OldClicker said it looks like he is getting mad. I hope that you got away before he got you. :lol:

WOW great shots, there is a Pileated Woodpecker near my house that I have been trying to get for most of the year everytime I see him he is either on the wrong side of the tree or fly's away as soon as I get near. I have not seen or heard him in a few weeks hope he is still around.

I agree...nice series! Close ups are outstanding........

I don't remember I've seen a photo of this species like your last shot. Great job, Scott !!

Thanks for all the kind comments, sitting as still as possible in sub zero temps was hard but this fellow made it worth while. These birds are usually so shy, being able to watch this bird up close was a real treat.

One of my favorite birds and you have done a fantastic series. Thank you.
To those that thought he was getting mad...... check this out
