Second of all, Lewis’s Woodpeckers are birds of the west and they rarely stray to New York State. So you can imagine our disappointment when we crawled out of the car after our trip to find out that Mike was in fact relaxing in the warm kitchen and had no idea where the woodpecker was! Why is that awesome?

While crossing Gramos Mountain in northern Greece, a Dendrocopos woodpecker flew over the road and landed in a pine tree. I had two possibilities, an uncommon Middle Spotted or scarce White-backed Woodpecker – which would have been a lifer for me. One Grey-headed Woodpecker flies across the road – a promising start.

During cold winters, the hunters retreated to the south, intent on quail and other game species. Red-headed Woodpeckers chattered to each other as they flew from tree to tree, and I marveled at just how many I spotted. Setting off across a wide field, I made a slow circle around a glass-calm pond.

It is in this habitat that birders seek out goodies like Red-cockaded Woodpecker and Bachmann’s Sparrow. Though Three Lakes is popular with hunters I did not see single other person for the first two hours I explored. I had no luck with the woodpeckers but did hear the call note of a Bachmann’s Sparrow. Repeatedly.

But the Golden-cheeked Woodpecker (in this case, a female) is a strictly Hot Country species, replaced by the closely-related Golden-fronted Woodpecker up where we live. Golden Vireos can also be seen near my home, while Rufous-backed Robins even visit my garden, when conditions are right.

From what I’ve been hearing, sport hunters are chomping at the bit to also return to the forest in droves. That corner was particularly fruitful as always, we even had appearances by a Cocoa Woodcreeper and a Chestnut Woodpecker. Within the same tree, a pair of Golden-olive Woodpeckers were also poking around.
