Hairy Woodpecker Male

This was a funny behavior to watch. This morning I was in my studio taking photos when I heard this guy talking behind me. We have a large section of glass overlooking the back yard and my studio and valley. This male was talking to his reflection in the window and making a gargling sound while bobbing his head back and forth. I guess he was telling this (other bird) that the territory was taken and he needs to leave. This went on for a good half hour before he left along with the other bird. :-) I hope he doesn't decide to do a flight attack............he may loose.
