I hope I didnt confuse anyone, but the shrikes were present, they just wouldn't cooperate with me getting photos. They were on the fence in front of the red brick house, I would suspect they will be hanging around for a while. Sorry for any confusion.

As Mike Sanders recorded, the Shrikes were not present yesterday, but three Red-headed Woodpeckers were very active in the pines to the right of the baseball field. I did not get as nice of a photo as Mike did but an employee of the church was also on the path and did get some action shots with his zoom lens. I've asked him to forward them to me if they came out. The pine grove is about 1,000 feet long. There is a path you can take on the right that leads down to the pines. You can park behind the church.
