Well Greg, just to keep up with you ( yeah, right! ) , Red-headed Woodpecker was a
new yard bird for me this am. Heard the calls first, and didn`t pay too much
attention, thinking I had a red-bellied ( apparently calls are similar) , but then
saw it fly , and yeah, saw those huge white wing patches. Anyways, have fun in
California- go get `em.Leslie Fisher
