This tree is half dead. It is pretty amazing to me that it survived the tropical storm winds, but it is clearly in bad shape.
Is this being eaten by a woodpecker or is it termites. Please don’t be termites.

Sure looks like a woodpecker to me, but how the hell would I know?
Saw dust on the ground. Interesting.
we have at least 3 different types of woodpeckers in methuen. what you are seeing is the woodpeckers eating the termites and other insects in the tree. we have downy, hairy and Pileated Woodpeckers
