Filmed this clip of a Pileated Woodpecker at the town of Fairfield Mill Hill Open Space adjacent the ALT Acorn Lane Preserve. You'll recognize the distinctive call and the boring sound can be heard from a long distance away.
A large bird about 16-19" tall. Gives me a headache just watching the drilling action!
