Pileated Woodpecker.
I usually browse through photos using "MS Photos." Then when I find the one that I want, I open it with Lightroom. But the photos automatically open with the application that was last used. So, if I forget to "open with," on the first photo, it often opens with Lightroom. That's what happened here, but it's a pileated woodpecker which is always interesting, so here it is.
"With flashing black-and-white wings and a bright red crest, when a crow-sized Pileated Woodpecker swoops by, even the most experienced birders stop in their tracks. This is the largest of North American woodpeckers. In the United States, only the Ivory-billed Woodpecker, likely extinct, was bigger." - abcbirds.org

Just a random thought:
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”

Judge slaps down yet another Trump 'delay' tactic in E. Jean Carroll trial
Trump's DNA offer was essentially a "quid pro quo" deal where he would only give opposing counsel access to his DNA if Carroll would hand over a "previously undisclosed appendix"

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
