Wendy Duncan sent me photographs of a male RED-NAPED SAPSUCKER at Captain William Clark Park, at Cottonwood Beach, in Washougal. I easily found the bird today in the location she described which is, park in the eastern parking lot next to the caretakers mobile home and walk the paved path up over the dike towards the Columbia River. As you come out of the trees there is a large Capt. William Clark Park sign, the bird is using the cottonwoods on the riverbank due south of the sign. This is a Code 5 bird in Clark County and only my second for the county.Wilson Cady
