• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Shaker Village Hike

Piliated woodpecker for sure.I have seen them do just what those pics show myself.I have also witnessed 2 of them fork over and destroy a fresh cut stump in 2 weeks and as mentioned above it was full of ants.

No kidding...I used to drive out to N Adams to hike up Greylock...I started my southern hike on the AT through MA there when I was 21! We live about 2 hrs apart! Can you say knife show!!! Shaker furniture and carpentry is a study in simplicity...they had alot of patience for people that didnt get it on!!! :D
 
Gunknifenut,

Cool, I hike Greylock sometimes, its beautiful up there isn't it? We'll have to hook-up sometime...
 
Right Esav, the woodpeckers are the 'woodchippers of the forest', and look at all the great fire starter they leave behind!

I used to live in Lee, MA then Pittsfield, then North Adams; small World this internet eh?! Hiked all over Greylock and North of there too. Camped at most of the State Forests in the area too.
