Here is a nice photo of a male Pale-billed Woodpecker to follow up on my last post of a photo of a female bird of the same species. The male's entire head is red. This photo is © Matt Brady (aka Podoces) and posted here with his permission.

You can hear a Pale-billed Woodpecker's signature double knock, recorded March 3, 2010
