Yesterday while volunteering with 5th graders at the Lab of O, I saw a bluejay-like bird but with all-white secondaries against an otherwise dark wing. I didn't have binoculars on me and was soon distracted by other stuff. But on further reflection, Red-headed Woodpecker is the only bird I can think of with that wing pattern. (That and gadwall, which this was not :-). I don't suppose anyone at the lab has seen one.
