 We are in Stowe, Vermont for a few days.  In one of the trees  outside our 
window,
is a very freshly drilled (pecked) hole which is about  6"-8" tall and  about 
4" wide, in a rectangular shape.  I looked up woodpecker holes  and I believe 
that the size and shape would have been made by a pileated  woodpecker.  We 
had one here 3 years ago and it was LOUD!  We watched  it peck a tree, and wood 
splinters were flying all over.  I haven't seen it  come back to the hole, 
but I am keeping vigil.
