Acorn Woodpecker- Cheesman Res.

[Jean Langel]

Hello,

I'm happy to report another Acorn Woodpecker in the same area I spotted him last year at Cheeseman Res. hanging out with a pair of Redheaded Woodpeckers.   Unlike the last time he hung around letting us get many pictures but of course didn't allow us to get to close.

I can also report several sets of Violet Green swallows- 4 pair Redheaded Woodpeckers.  Looking for the Lewis and only found one at a distance would love to catch these guys again if anyone has more specifics of where they are hanging out.

I posted a couple of pics. http://coloradobirder.ning.com/
