This morning Mr. Pileated Woodpecker visited my suet. You might be able to see that he has a red mustache in the photo which marks him as male. An hour later Ms. Pileated Woodpecker came by too. The females don't have the red mustache. She didn't want her picture taken though. Most of the birds on the suet have been hungry black capped chickadees. The chickadees take such a small amount they hardly make a dent in the suet. Hairy woodpeckers have also come by but not as often as the chickadees.
