Red-headed Woodpecker Photos

A definite nemesis bird! They tricky!! Spooky! They have a tendence to cling to a tree, or telephone pole, but when you get anywhere close enough for a photo, they either hitch themselves around to the backside of the perch, or they fly away. A few photos, including the featured one which I do like.
