    Pileated woodpecker I'd say. They sound prehistoric (to my ear) and look like they'll fall from the sky if they don't flap. At least that's my take on them:D

    Was going to say "Pileated Woodpecker", too. They are amazing birds.

    I was going to say Pileated as well. I saw my first one this year (I just took up bird watching) They are actually pretty big birds (And loud when they are pecking)

    This is the best pic I managed

    If you look at the tree, you will see an oval/rectangular hole. That is typical for the Pileated

    Ditto on the ID and cuteness...

    Believe I've shown this crummy video before, a Pileated woodpecker going after the mirror on my neighbor's car (he pecked on my car window first):
