Thanks, Rick. I've seen him again this morning, but not in one spot for
long.
When I was still working, in the early 1990s, we had a patch of untended
woods beyond our small parking lot. I saw a Pileated out there in the
woods several times, while looking out my office window. But, this was
on a secured USAF installation, so no cameras were allowed.

Great catch, Jim! Don't see the Redhead around here at all.
We have the Red Belly, Downy, Hairy and the Flicker, plus an elusive
Pileated that I have been stalking, unsuccessfully, for the last three
years.

I've had glimpses of this woodpecker at times, but he never stayed long
enough for a snap. I glanced out at dusk yesterday and saw him, but
worried that there was not enough light to get an image. He was constantly
moving, so I raised the ISO to 6400 to get the shutter speed up to 1/50,
having never tried this high an ISO rating with the X-E1. This was the
best of the several images.
