Felt the same as John (i.e. surprise) when, around 5:30 p.m., Jeanie and
Mark and I saw a Hairy Woodpecker on one of their trees, in the Victory
Heights neighborhood, a little SW of Meadowbrook Pond (near the VH
park/playground) - I think it was a male, as we saw the red occipital patch
on the back of the head.

Hi all,

This isn't news that's going to make you alter your weekend plans...I just
saw a female Hairy Woodpecker in my backyard in north Seattle. It was here
for about 20 minutes working on a dying ornamental shrub. It had a long bill
and white outer tail feathers and was large. I got a few digibin'ed photos.
Not a bird I was expecting to see in a sparsely wooded suburban neighborhood
a few blocks south of Meadowbrook Pond.
