Pileated Watch

Data from eBird.

The Ivory-billed Woodpecker may be a ghost (opens in new tab), but the Pileated is very much alive. As the largest woodpecker in North America, its presence signals a healthy, mature forest ecosystem. This is a live map of recent Pileated sightings across the Twin Cities, pulled directly from eBird.
