I walked the loop path at Riley Creek Conservation Area in Eden Prairie
where the Acorn Woodpecker was reported yesterday. I was in the park from
about 1:00 - 2:40 PM. I saw a few woodpeckers, three Red-Bellied and two
Downy Woodpeckers, and a bunch of chickadees and nuthatches, but was unable
to locate an Acorn Woodpecker.
One note is that on the back side of the trail I was consistently hearing a
very fast (almost high pitched) drumming sound that did not sound familiar
to me, although I do not have much skill with identifying drumming sounds.
