Bobbi reporting:

Hi Peter,

Normally I get excited when we have a 5 woodpecker day but today was extra special.  While we didn't get a Hairy we did get a Red -headed woodpecker!!

Shane had alerted us on Tuesdays walk that he thought he had heard and glimpsed one. Today Rob spotted and heard this bird up on Butterfly Meadow and got everyone on it for good looks.  

Tom -we'll be wanting a pileated when you get back! :-)
