I saw one pileated in my life. It was just outside my office window in Hopkinton about 3 or 4 years ago. Giant beautiful bird.
They're closely related to the Ivory Billed which hadn't been seen since about 1945 and thought to be extinct until some Cornell ornithologists claim to have seen and recorded one in the swamps of Arkansas just a few years ago.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Your eyes must have been bugging out staring at a pecker that big.
