The Red-headed Woodpecker is still present at 615 pm. It's perched on a telephone pole east of 59th, and south of Hygiene Rd.
I spent a good while along Old S St. Vrain Rd earlier but couldn't find the Baltimore Oriole.

I was driving south on 61s almost at Hygiene when the woodpecker flew in front of me, flew across Hygiene and landed on a power pole. After attending the team challenge at the CFO convention, I knew that it should have a large patch of white on the wing and I saw that as it flew in front of the car. When it landed on the pole I got my bins on it and there was the Red-head. Thanks to Pam and Linda for posting it. Red-headed Woodpeckers seem to be on the decline at least from the first Breeding Bird Atlas. Each of the blocks that I have completed listed Red-headed Woodpeckers in the first atlas, but I have not been able to find one in my blocks for the second atlas.
