[Maine-birds] pileated woodpecker, Lewiston

A pileated woodpecker has been foraging in a dead tree in the couple of acres of woods behind my house, and making quite a racket.  No signs of excavating nearby, so I assume the nest is some distance away.

Does anyone know how far a pileated might fly for food? 
My house is between Thorncrag sanctuary (a mile away) and the Androscoggin River (half a mile away).  But otherwise this part of Lewiston is pretty well filled with houses.
