Observation details
**Rare and continuing. A returning bird that has frequented the same deer exclosure area on the Deer Run Trail for over a year now. Initially silent, but ten minutes after I arrived it started giving its excited “queer” calls for about 20 minutes. Eventually gave spectacular views when a a foolish RBWO entered its territory. Beautiful melanerpes with a bright bread head, white stomach, and black wings with white secondaries. At one point, oddly flycatching from the top of a dead tree! Photos and audio to come
