I heard the large, noisy bird before I saw it.
Its loud, brash call alerted me to the fact that a jay - or something - might be outside the window at my son’s house in Fenelon Falls.

Fortunately, though it was a very windy day, the pileated woodpecker stayed long enough for me to fetch my camera and step out onto a nearby balcony.
