Red-headed Woodpecker (Melanerpes erythrocephalus)

It's been 3 years since the last sighting of this impressive woody. I got him twice in consecutive days at the same place. Guess he likes it there. It's across the street from one of my water monitoring sites and I found him out of sheer luck or is that fate?
