Pileated Woodpecker

Yesterday on my morning walk,
I kept hearing wingbeats behind & above me.  
Almost like something was stalking me.
Then I spotted this normally secretive pileated woodpecker 
in the tree above me.

These are the largest woodpeckers measuring up to 16 inches from crown to tail.

They are the model for Woody the woodpecker.
