Which species of woodpecker is pictured?

The Pileated woodpecker ("Dryocopus Pileatus") is a large, mostly black woodpecker native to North America. "Pileated" refers to the bird's prominent red crest, from the Latin "pileatus" meaning "capped". This bird inhabits deciduous forests in eastern North America, the Great Lakes, the boreal forests of Canada, and parts of the Pacific Coast. It is the second-largest woodpecker species in the U.S.

Pileated woodpeckers are mainly black with a red crest and have a white line down the sides of the throat. They show white on the wings in flight. Between feeding and excavating the best cavities, these woodpeckers can peck up to twenty times per second or a total of 8000 to 12000 pecks per day. The tongue of this woodpecker is up to 10 cms (4 in) long, three times the length of its bill.
