[Mnbird] red headed woodpecke

[Jolynn Nelson]

Is the reporting request specific to Minnesota or is it regional? I've been seeing them just over the border in South Dakota, south of Sioux Falls.

>> Am not sure of your location. A few weeks ago I reported seeing a Red-headed woodpecker on CR 138 in Ogema Township, Pine County, the first we'd seen in a few decades. This weekend I spotted three different individuals in two different locations, same township, same day. One male was about one mile west of the Ogema Township Hall (CR 137). A pair was seen about 3/4 mile south of the Township Hall on CR 137, near Bang's Brook. I doubled back to be sure I wasn't seeing the same bird on the move.

I caught a flash of color land on the feeder and first I thought; wow that red bellied woodpecker really colored up this spring but when I got a good look at it it was a red headed woodpecker.  First one at my feeders in 27 years.  I watched this bird pick up a seed fly about 20 feet to a basswood tree to crack and eat it from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM.  Never saw him again.  What a treat.
