Several RBAs came in indicating the at the female Three-toed Woodpecker was back in Pine Grove, this time accompanied by a mate. Aaron Hywarren got some great photos of both together.
We parked at P18 on Davidson this time, which meant a rather long walk, as it was close to Conroy Road.
Wen we got to the spot, several birders were there, but the woodpeckers had flown to the south. We waited awhile, then Mike Tate heard one calling and spotted it high in a tree. We snapped a few quick shots before it flew off to the north. It seems to have been the female.
On the way home, we stopped at Black Rapids, and checked the river. Only the usual suspects.
Later, we got several more RBAs indicating that the Three-toed and also a Black-backed had returned. We'll try again.
