Making chips and saw dust

This Pileated woodpecker was going nuts looking for a meal. I shot this at ISO 2500 and didn't use noise reduction. Is it very noticeable to you?

Beauties, Rex.

It's noticeable but doesn't diminish the beautiful shots.

Very nice shots, Rex; I think you might employ a little luminance smoothing and you wouldn't notice a thing.

Beautiful shots!

At this resolution, I don't see any noise

No, I tried to turn up the loudspeaker volume, but the noise from that woodpecker did not come through.

Great capture, but poor tree.

Really cool shot's ...I had mom and pop and a babe this summer. But they are always in the shadow's. They were fun thou

Fantastic shots...just from the title, I knew it had to be a Pileated!

pwm2...loved the volume comment!

Not really very little noise, I'm with SJ, knew from the title. Superb shots!

Thank you, everybody.
Al, I'll have to try that.
Pwm2, good one. Sweden is a long way off and my speakers are weak.

the wee bit of noise is no distraction at all Rex. Love the one with the chip of wood sitting on/flying over his shoulder!

Awesome shots, Rex.
I turn green with envy whenever someone posts such sharp captures of a Pileated WP. In my neck of the woods they are SO skittish and elusive. I'm thrilled just hearing their "wuk wuk wuk!" jungle call much less getting a good shot.
Congrats!!!

Lol. Awesome. I love these guys.

These look great for ISO 2500, well done Rex.

Ian, that chip was flying.
Barry, I can get pretty close to the male, but the female is a different story. She is skittish like a flicker.
Thanks to all for commenting.
