Pileated Woodpecker at Chimney Rock Hawk Watch
We did see some hawks high in the sky at Chimney Rock Hawk Watch but the highlight was a pileated woodpecker.
The sequence below shows the woodpecker cleaning. It spent 5 minutes gathering leaves and throwing them from the nest.
These are awesome shots! love LOVE love them :)
