Pileated Woodpecker Rescued From Car Grille

Occurred on July 7, 2023 / Shippensburg University, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, USA

Info from Licensor: "I had the honor of helping this little guy today. I parked in a lot that I don’t usually park in and happened to pull in next to this car. I have no idea how long he had been stuck there. And what are the odds that someone that used to work with rehabilitating wildlife happened to be driving by? We were so glad to see him fly off after giving him some water and assessing him. He only had a minor scrape on his leg. The poor thing seemed to be in shock more than anything else. I am so glad the stars aligned to save the guy! I started filming in case the owner of the car came back wondering what I was doing to their car."
