This afternoon Jean Montgomery, A.B. Moseley, and I observed Red-headed 
Woodpeckers flying back and forth from trees and one landed on top of a 
telephone pole.    These birds were located in the wooded area behind Jean's 
house just outside of  Lebanon, Va.  Jean reports that this spring Red-headed 
Woodpeckers were seen entering and leaving a large snag at the edge of the 
woods. 
This species is a rare sighting for me in Russell County.
