Not so many around here but have had a resident pair for a few years now. I love the sound they make.
Eh...wot?

Your thread has got my friend to build a feeder like you posted several years ago for them, now they are daily visitors to his.
Was ice fishing years back in a remote lake @ -35 and there was 3 loud WACKS, WACKs, WACKS, I hit the deck thinking someone was shooting at me in first light with a frost fog over the lake, thinking I was a wolf.........after I brushed the snow off my face...the male Pileated called. What a relief. Could you post those plans, thanks

We have a couple different pairs nesting on our property. Both near some of my hunting stands. Early season they are still near the nest holes in hollowed out trees. All winter they are daily visitors to the suet feeders!

I like watching them here. They are kind of goof balls at the feeders.
I have nothing clever to put here.
