Super facinating that you got to watch the Pileated baby learn the ropes. They are such neat birds and evidently not terribly smart freshly fledged.

When a cowbird hatched in our bluebird box once, it was the loudest, screechiest giant baby I'd ever heard. It flew up to the ridge of the garage roof and would stomp back and forth in a tantrum until the poor, overworked bluebirds served up its meals. Still angry with myself for not knowing to take that big white egg out of the box.
