^^ I love Pileateds. We had one on both our suet and seed feeder last winter. They're a bit of a bull in a china shop.

Amazing birds!
Very shy and not easy to photograph. Today I heard that distinctive 'wuk wuk' call and had a chance to grab my camera and hide out of sight before she could see me.
The males have the red colour all the way down their long bills - no bird expert, I looked it up before posting this.

I stopped to watch a pair of Hooded Mergansers for a few minutes at the Lower Duck Pond in High Park. They disappear under the water for about 5 or 10 seconds and surface at a different place, sometimes with a fish.
