I was going to guess some sort of Pine until you zoomed back out and we saw a lot more of the tree. As for the bird, I don't know birds very well. I should think the tree will survive. I don't know.

I was walking through this nearby park on 5th Ave. and 23rd st. and saw all these woodpeckers pummeling the several species of this tree! How long will a tree like this last?? I don't think the tree is id- able from my video (even by Steve G.!), but anyone know the species of woodpecker? Yellow-bellied sapsucker? (The buildings shown in the video are responsible for hundreds of songbird deaths every migration season. Macabre birding NYC-style: go find the dead migrating birds! They slam into the buildings because reflect the foliage and branches of trees.) Video is 1:45. And it's cute, if wobbly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZqOnThRcGg Thanks!
