We were fortunate to see the Pileated Woodpecker at Shu Swamp Preserve
(Mill Neck, Long Island) this afternoon around 1:00. We followed the trail
to the south (off the parking lot) which runs parallel to Frost Mill Rd.
and headed in towards Beaver Brook. We were able to see him just east as

It flew across the stream and further south into the tops of the trees.

Pacific Loon was present at 12:40. However, just as we arrived, someone began
shooting skeet not 50 feet from where the Loon was diving in the mouth of the

Wow. I live right next door to Shu. As I was walking to my car this morning,
I heard what I thought was a pileated, drumming and calling. Saying to myself,

DOH! Fingers crossed it discovers my feeders!

There is a Pileated Woodpecker being seen along the trails around the pond at
