Pileated1 Woodpecker sighting!

We didn't take the picture, alas, but we did see a Pileated Woodpecker this morning, forty or so feet up in a tree perhaps seventy-five yards from our back door. Through our fieldscope.
    Let this finally move us to go ahead and purchase the Nikon Coolpix P300 and accessories for attaching it to our scope for digiscoping (digital photography through a fieldscope). It's even on sale right now from Nikon (but Amazon's price is still $50 less, with no shipping charges).
