Daughter, Becky arrived home from work about 4:30 p.m. to the flash of clearly defined, bright black & white color in her trees on Ridge Rd. out of Union Springs. Grabbing her binox from her car she soon found the bird also had a bright red head!

She called me as she was taking pix & listening to its loud call. Needless to say, she was thrilled. Kathy Strickland lives not too far away & she will no doubt try to re-find it when she gets home. Both Kathy & Becky are "in the basin" so a happy find for Becky, esp. since she saw it BEFORE going out to mow her lawn. We're hoping it will find a nesting hole & a mate in that area. Her pix leave NO doubt about the ID.
