Now open for business in the Duluth area … Rich’s Bar and Grill serving fantastic suet … a Covid-19 plan and protections are in place!
Yup … Poppa Pileated (bird on the left) was teaching junior (bird on the right) about suet this morning. The youngster is a female. Thus, this image shows you how to tell the sexes apart for Pileated Woodpeckers. The male’s crest comes all the way to the upper beak, and it also has a scarlet mustache.
Dad … do I really have to eat my suet?! Woody at my woodpecker school says it’s just lard!
Great views– We don’t see many in Western iowa. Don
