We have a lot of ash trees, and we have the emerald ash borer, so we have a lot a dead trees, and we have a lot of woodpeckers, including the very large pileated woodpecker. #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #photography #nature #naturephotography #HoosierMast
A pileated woodpecker hangs onto a tree while he opens his wings showing the large white patch of feathers on the underside. Over the top edge of the wing, you can see his white and black head with its bright red crest and the red mustache that marks him as a male.
A male pileated woodpecker has lifted his wings, preparing to push off from the tree on which he has been hanging.
A male pileated woodpecker is airborne on his way to the feeder. His wings are almost folded against his body at this point in his flight. He looks like a red headed missile.

A wide aspect ratio photograph of two woodpeckers sitting a small distance from each other, on different branches of the same birch tree and facing away from each other. The trunk of the birch is towards the right edge of the photo and a branch of another tree is right next to it to the left. The birds sit in shadow, but the blurry forest background, with out of focus trees further back, is bathing in golden light.

It was a victory for a range of business interests that have lobbied to scale back the #CleanWaterAct of 1972, including farmers, home builders, real estate developers, #oil drillers & #petrochemical manufacturers.

โ€ฆUnder the #CleanWater Act, companies & individuals must obtain a permit from the #EPA before releasing #pollutants into the nationโ€™s #waterways. They must receive a permit from the US Army Corps of Engineers.โ€ฆ

The #Trump admin proposed Monday to significantly limit the EPAโ€™s authority to limit #pollution in #wetlands, #rivers & other bodies of #water across the country.

The proposed rule could strip federal #protections from millions of acres of wetlands & #streams, potentially threatening sources of clean #DrinkingWater for millions of Americans.
