Woodpeckers: Part III

The Hairy Woodpecker (mentioned yesterday) I found a little closer to home in Ramsey Canyon, Arizona. A little larger than the Downy, and whose range spreads down Eastern Arizona into Southeastern Arizona's coniferous forests. Ramsey Canyon is in the Coronado National Forest (Huachuca Mountain Range). It likes the more mature forests and rarely forages on wed stalks.
