Dear All, Nov 26, 2007
This afternoon at North Alton a Pileated (pronounced pile-at-ed, so
I was told years ago, not pil-e-at-ed) WP came kuk-kuking in at treetop
level as I got out of the car, did a 270 and landed out of sight near a
White Pine that has a 2 (3?)-yr-old nesting hole. I have not seen this
hole in use but it looks the right size and initially had a lot of resin
which may account for it not haveing been occupied.
During the next 3 hours the PWP stayed in the general vicinity,
kuk-kuking from various quarters and flying within sight several times
but I heard no tapping suggestive of tree feeding. Would they be staking
claims to nesting holes as early at this ?
Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville
