Pileated Woodpecker Mother and Chick

We caught a glimpse of these two near Longmire in Mount Rainier NP. What fun it was to watch her teaching her young'un to work for a living. :-) He/she was periodically just hanging around, and periodically trying his bill at the whole pecking thing. He /she seemed somewhat unenthusiastic and also spent a fair bit of time begging to be fed. Oh, those moody teenagers! lol Can you tell which is the moody teenager?
