Observation details

Continuing, first reported by Lauren Harter. Every tree in the park is lined with sapsucker holes and two trees have what appears to be fresh holes. I located it by the wooden play area on SW side and followed it to the west side. Appears to be a dark-capped juvenile/female type bird with only the dark cap being different than a normal YBSA from what I can see. Almost a month earlier than previously reported early fall record.
