I was up at Montezuma NWR this morning, and after spending a fun hour or so photographing the Purple Martins I headed over to Mays Point to see if there were any Red-headed Woodpeckers. After hanging out near the flooded trees for half an hour, I was about to leave when 1 Red-headed Woodpecker flew in and landed on a treetrunk. But it was immediately buzzed by another bird (possible Tree Swallow?) and flew off north toward the weir, where there was lots of noisy construction (human) going on. I waited around a while but it never reappeared, nor did I see any evidence they are nesting in that spot. Does anyone else have more positive news?
