Female Pileated Woodpecker drinking and bathing!

I thought this was going to be a bathing Blue Jay video but was surprised to see the Woodpecker hop over to the stream! She gets into the water about halfway through the video. I just love these woodpeckers!

Is this a man made stream? Is it next to your feeder?

[@thebirdperch_MI]

Yes. It is where our geothermal heating/cooling system. The water is being returned back to the ground. It soaks into the ground through this "stream". So it runs on and off throughout the day, most days of the year.
