Big and beautiful? Or kinda ugly?

On Wednesday morning, I was headed to the kitchen to make the coffee when I noticed this big buy at the suet feeder in the back yard.  I had only seen a Pileated Woodpecker once before and that was in Glenn's yard in Spring Valley.  
This one is a female, the male has red stripes down his neck but those are black on the female.  
I'll be sure to keep the suet feeder full to see if I can get her to come back again.
As big as a crow almost.
She is an impressive bird, but I'm not sure I think she is very pretty.  
If she keeps coming here, my suet budget will be blown.
