Such a beautiful day here today, with bright sunshine and cool, comfortable temps. Spring's beauty continues to unfold daily. This afternoon, we got a closer look at the largest woodpecker in our area, the pileated woodpecker. One of these huge, red crested birds bonked into our front window. Alarmed and worried the bird injured itself had us racing outdoors to check on him, only to see him fly off to a nearby tree. He took his time resting in the tree after the incident, allowing me to get some photos. After I was done taking pictures, he found his home tree and was out of sight. Apparently, he was not the worse for the wear and was doing okay after his ordeal.
