Red-headed Woodpecker

Melanerpes erythrocephalus

Description:

I heard long before I saw this tri-colored bird in a wetlands area.

Habitat:

Red-headed Woodpeckers live in pine savannahs and other open forests with clear understories. Open pine plantations, treerows in agricultural areas, and standing timber in beaver swamps and other wetlands all attract Red-headed Woodpeckers.

Notes:

Spotted on the Noonday Creek Trail, Kennesaw GA.
