This immature Red-headed Woodpecker was discovered by Lenore Swenson on December 15th, 2006. It has drilled roosting holes in trees on both sides of Riverside Drive near 92nd Street. This photo was taken on December 17th, the day of the Audubon Christmas Bird Count. I was part of the group counting birds in Riverside north of 96th Street, but went looking for the woodpecker after our count was completed.
