Observation details

Heard same one bird calling many times on 2 different streets very nearby (within 100 yards of previous sighting). Made Many recordings but only one without overwhelming background landscaping noise has been uploaded. Bird Flew across street to recording of golden-fronted but generally not very interested . Saw briefly from side and below but not well enough to identify which melanerpes. Recording spectrogram matches red-bellied. So have to conclude no Golden-Fronted encountered today. Yesterday had no Melanerpes at all nearby. Bird seen/heard Could Possibly be mystery yellow napped Melanerpes woodpecker (but have no proof). Drove 5 miles of roads (all roads) in neighborhood without any other Melanerpes woodpeckers.
