A couple years ago I was amazed to see a Pileated on suet. Have since seen
them three times at that and another location. And was told of several
Pileateds that visited regularly at a third location. All were on the large
size wire suet containers. The locations were all in Harrison County, IN and
the settings were mainly a mix of fields and woods, with one in a neighborhood
situated in open woods on the edge of Corydon. I've been wondering if they
were beginning to frequent feeders in other locations; especially, here in KY.
Nice to hear.

Subject: [birdky] Pileated Woodys on Suet
A old caving friend south of Lex'ton reports Pileated Woodpeckers his place
every day on a Suet feeder. My old friend is a naturalist, not a 100% birder so
to speak, but he knows a Pileated when he sees and hears. He has 50 acres of
woods.
Unfortunately cannot visit until virus passes.
We have never had a PW on suet at Browder. Think I would flip out if that
happened.
