Roldcat writes, "Through the distance in the trees, I spotted this pileated woodpecker. It is the largest of all woodpeckers and can grow to 14 inches. Its main diet is insects such as carpenter ants and other crawlies in dead trees. The cartoon character Woody Woodpecker was a pileated woodpecker." Comments | Permalink
