About 17:30 today Ann Callaway called my attention to a potential flicker call, but when I got the glasses on the top of the dead pine at Lone Oak picnic table (at Loop Rd & Meadows Canyon trail) my first words were "Holy cow!" A Pileated male, to go by the very long red crest bordered by white, though we couldn't make out any red on the chin: it seemed to like the shady side of the trunk. Lifer for me.
