Still present around the Visitors Center and main campground at Nerstrand Woods State Park are at least two, and probably 3 or 4 Red-headed Woodpeckers. One adult was feeding in the campground center, on the same two trees where the birds have nested in prior summers. An apparent youngster, with mixed red and brown feathers on head and neck, was feeding in the picnic ground just north of the visitors' center. The tree it favored is adjacent to the public parking-lot drive, and has a lower limb with a bulge that contains a nest-sized cavity, into which the bird disappeared for a brief time. Across the picnic ground, in the trees north of the outhouses and adjacent to the campground, is a tall stump with many cavities, including a nest-sized one. A young red-head was feeding there as well. This seemed to be a different one, based on the amount of red plumage visible. There were some alarm calls exchanged by the birds, especially when a loose dog was barking around the lot, and at that point I heard at least 3 and possibly 4 voices, and saw one of the birds in the trees on the west side of the parking lot.
