I saw one here on my 4 acre property in southwest Michigan couple weeks ago. He was tearing up this old dead tree, made quite a mess. He was pretty big, too. Almost as big as a Raven. I'm lucky to have my property in a densely wooded area surrounded by bottomlands, marshes, rolling hills. In fact, right in the middle of my backyard is a marsh full of cattails. Further back in the woods runs a creek. Perfect habitat for the Pileated Woodpecker.
Great video, thanks. I often hear these beautiful birds in the woods near me but have never seen one close up - always flying away through the treetops!
They don't mind being heard but are difficult to see.I saw my 1st 2 pileated last week after living on my Arkansas farm for 5 yrs and they were awesome 4 a brief view.
I've watched a few woodpecker videos and they're all quickly pecking but in a tight and controlled way. Then this mad mad is just hacking away at the tree and letting out maniacal laughter 😂 I get why he's a cartoon character now.
We had 2 pecking away at our suet feeder today in Columbus, Ohio.....we were sitting 8 feet away.....they didn’t seem bothered by our presence. Pretty amazing!
It’s a bitch though, when they decide the eaves of you house, are a good place to peck. They are funny though, genuine woody woodpecks. They can be cranky too if you get new their nest. I bought a house that had a lot of woods around it. The first time I attempted to mow the back yard, I was repeatedly dive bombed by the male. They are pretty good size birds to. I certainly didn’t want to hurt him, but I needed to mow my grass. My neighbor had run in with him too. His solution was a water hose with a pistol grip pressure nozzle. It worked great!!! Every time woody dive bombed me, I sprayed him in the face. Eventually we reached a truce. I could mow the lawn, he watched me closely, but left me alone. Eventually their babies hatched and one by one, they flew away. Very cool birds and good parents. But definitely cranky.....used to chase away all the other birds, including a snooping hawk now and then.
+Nightmareprinny I love Woody Woodpecker he is very funny he's 1 of my favorite character I have a sense of humor & make other people laugh like he does I have a stuffed Animal of Woody Woodpecker I like his laugh too
Anyone know why one of these would be frantically flying from tree to tree pecking for about 10 seconds while constantly squawking? I saw one do that and couldn't figure out what was going on. It seemed like it was desperate to find food or something.

I love that prehistoric woodland call
Very awesome
One of my favorite birds!☆♡
how cute!!!🥰
For this Woody laugh, because the call of the woodpeckers look like a laughter!😁
I like when woodpeckers make the machine gun sound really fast!
I didnt expect a woodpecker to be that loud
Love that call. It sounds like a jungle bird.
like a toucan, or amazon bird
Kookaburra
The way that woodpecker is pecking the s**** out of the wood is funny. XD
@@goognamgoognw6637 you sound like someone who would brag about their IQ
You should see them when they congregate in a group… sounds like they conversate and laugh at each other’s jokes
Let me in, LET ME IIINNN!!

Beautiful bird
So wonderful video. Nice woodpecker. Cheers.
Cool. I never knew that call was a pileated woodpecker!
I have heard that call 4 yrs before I saw the pileated because I thought it was 1 of the red-bellied.
Beautiful bird.

Majestic bird ,great "footage".
nice bird
Wonderful. I hear this call all the time but can't find the bird that's making it.
Those guys are loud when they get to hammering on a tree!
Beautiful!
How do these birds not get a headache pecking like that? 😂
Because their tongues wrap around their skulls to absorb the impact like a helmet on the inside of their heads.
I've seen this species before and they are quite interesting to see.
it's Woody Woodpecker a live action of him lol
+Rosalee Zephier Guess who?! Hahaha ha! Hahaha ha! hehehehe =w=

The knocking sound like a Pileated Woodpecker.

That's Soo adorable
Red pileated woodpeckers are incredibly loud. This video doesn’t do them justice,
I love thes sound
This is the true nature of a calm forest
Isn't nature beautiful in its different ways?
The Freddie Mercury of the woods.
we have them here in North East Texas as well, they are badass
Wow luar biasa banget kawan burungnya Bagus Semoga sukses
We have a nesting pair that have been on our Tall Pines for years it seems... great call from thes3 large woodpeckers 👍
THis BIRD IS HARD WORKR
I have one of these pecking away on my dead Ash tree in Pennsylvania.
They eat the emerald ash borer, the insect that is killing ash trees across the United States.
Мой хороший и любимый дятлик❗❗❗🎄🎄🌳🌳🌲🌲🌳🌳🌳
That red stripe looks like a joker lipstick 💀💀
I wonder if this was all the way up the tree the way the recorded it here for the Pileated Woodpecker?
The bird pecked, it called, and it flew!
0:31 That other Pileated Woodpecker is the female calling 10 miles away to the male one here
Every morning during the summer here in MA
Hard work of bird
Ah Ah il est là le Facteur : il a du courriers ?.
This is so cute!
