Observation details

Saw a woodpecker fly by and into a tree as I was leaving. Suspected it was a sapsucker. Investigated and saw many wells and heard it calling, but never could locate it through the branches. Called sounded higher and squeakier than RBSA. I also didn’t see any big flash of red as it flew in, so I’m wondering if it was a RNSA or YBSA. But, never could confirm my suspicions/hopes.
