This is interesting. The Red-headed Woodpecker is still in Cunningham Park
(Queens) four days later. It's in the same area as before and likely has
been on all my visits this week. In my experience, they tend to stay
moderately high when in deciduous woods. The first sighting was by chance.
Today, I was alerted to its presence when it began calling, and was only
able to spot it when it flew from one tree to another nearby.

There was a Red-headed Woodpecker in the northern section of Cunningham
Park, Queens late this afternoon (maybe all day even - but seen by me late).
