Raucous calls from a pair of birds directed our eyes to nearby trees during our morning walk. Out came the cell phone and with the help of a 2X lens and some digital enlargement, images of the pair were captured. Like the old cartoon character, Woody Woodpecker, the piliated woodpeckers are loud, flashy, and always amusing. We treasure their calls and antics.
