A red-headed woodpecker visited my yard for over 45 minutes yesterday afternoon. This species is very rare in NE Minnesota. Hopefully “red” has a mate near by and is thinking of drilling out a nest hole. Each summer, we have one or two nesting redheads in the region. It would be fun to have the birds select my yard (video of red for blog subscribers)

My absolute favorite color of RED! We have two pairs this summer between the farm and the lake. Congrats!
Oh, my!
I moved up here from the southern part of the state and really miss these beauties. Nice to see.
