I have even heard of people using rotten logs to attract them with success. Some people are able to attract them with suet, but I have not been able to. They come to a dead stump in the yard. I have heard that Jim's BirdaciousĀ® Bark ButterĀ® from Wild Birds UnlimitedĀ© is good at attracting them. I have never tried it.<br /><br />P.S. - I have NO ties (financial,perks, etc.) to WBU whatsoever!donaldthebirderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01099741668535209996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34994535.post-23233523695014038552010-03-11T11:21:53.416-05:002010-03-11T11:21:53.416-05:00How can I attract Pileated Woodpeckers to my yard?...How can I attract Pileated Woodpeckers to my yard??Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08308985318232029578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34994535.post-42496823943163199202010-03-11T11:20:38.786-05:002010-03-11T11:20:38.786-05:00Wow!
