[TN-Bird] Red-headed woodpecker at Radnor Lake, Davidson Co.

I hiked around Radnor lake with some non-birding friends this morning.  We went 
up Ganier Ridge (not my usual),  and lucked into finding a red-headed 
woodpecker on the eastern end of the ridge.   It was about 30 yards up the hill 
from bench #36.  Beautiful bird  - first I've ever seen!  
There was a group of ~10 ducks there in the middle of the lake.  I'm not 
certain  what type, since I always seemed to be looking into the sun.  I think 
ring-necked, but  can't be sure.

The rest:
