Another Woodpecker update

"She" is doing well....now, we're not so sure she's a pileated woodpecker...looking for photos of their fledglings to try and identify her.
Regardless, she's approx 22 days old and doing FABULOUS! Eating well, hopping around her little hospital cage, and hanging on to my friend's shirt...like my friend is a tree :-)
Yesterday, she got spooked and flew a few feet across the room...oh, and my friend said that her beak is getting quite sharp! I bet!!
Another week or so, and she'll be on her own!!

Another Update
