Any birdwatchers in the house?

I have a monster pine that is between the house and creek..This puppy is a good 60+ tall, with massive holes halfway up. Strange thing is it is green to the top, after the holes..Main bird that still hammer away, is a Pileated Wood Pecker. He is a monster, that damn tree needs to come down and hauled off..Frankly I don't know why it still standing.

Those pileated are very territorial. We used a calling app on my phone hooked to a speaker to call them in.
Worked great until they realized they'd been had. After a few times they got wise and quit coming.

I've had a lot of activity from Red Headed woodpeckers, seems to love the suet feeder I have out there. Just took a pic of one picking through the birdseed I have out. My phone sucks for taking pic's on full zoom, he decided to hang out on the far side of the feeder after I stepped outside for the pic.

I haven’t been fortunate enough to see any pileated or red headed woodpeckers yet. Still, I’m getting plenty of Red-bellied and Downy woodpeckers here in my backyard.

Had an unusual (for me) visitor yesterday at the feeder. A Rose Breasted Grosbeak. I checked the book and the last time I had one visit was 4/29/99.View attachment 3240510Beautiful animal.

Finally able to take a pic of the Rose Breasted Grosbeak. It doesn't visit my feeder as much as others.
