I am always startled to walk out of the house and hear raucous, completely mad sounding laughter from the woods around the house. It always takes me a few seconds of wonder to remember that its the call of the pileated woodpeckers who live there. We are getting quite a colony of them and they are great fun. I was looking up some information on them and saw a similar picture to this one of the tree taken in Adams county. It was tagged as a pileated woodpecker excavation. It's fairly low to the ground, but so was the one in Adams county.
