There's an almost-dead spruce in our side yard - quite visible from our bedroom window...and for the last couple of years a pair of pileated's show up in mid-springtime...to continue working away at some of their large holes near the base of this tree. So entertaining to watch as we sip our coffee, each of us with a pair of binoculars.
Looking ahead...I can imagine that this old tree will give out and topple over - but as long as it looks like it will fall short of the house, we're going to leave it alone...so the peckers can keep on peckin'!
