Pileated Woodpecker

While walking Ballou at Assiniboine Park yesterday we saw a Pileated Woodpecker. He (I am pretty sure it was a male) was beautiful. I don't remember ever seeing one before. After doing some research on the internet I have learned that Pileated Woodpeckers do not migrate and Winnipeg is withing their range, so I am hoping to see him again, maybe with a mate, and hopefully when I have a camera, or better yet Len has his.
