#2, Once Again!!!! (Dryocopus pileatus)

I'm very happy to say, this is once again the second largest woodpecker in North America. This male was working an old growth bald cypress at Audubon's Corkscrew Swamp.

Yes, I agree. It is a good thing to be #2, I hope some day someone post a picture of a Ivory-billed.

Very nice David! I'm still waiting for mine to return. Shouldn't be too long now.

I saw this bird right at that location, took a shot, but it was too far. Your shot is great.

One of my most "wanna see" birds. Awesome that you got the male and female. Two wonderful shots!
