All,

I've birded NS for over 20 years, sometimes enthusiastically, sometimes
just absorbingly. However, I don't know much about Red-bellied Woodpeckers
here, though someone has sent in a picture to our local paper and the
reporter wants details about the species here. From watching NatureNS and
reading *Nova Scotia Birds*, I feel like this statement is fair: "It is a
regular fall or winter visitor, in some years, in ones and twos, and in
others, like this one, they are popping up regularly. I don=92t think anyon=
e
knows why this happens." Does this sound reasonable?

There is one nest record in the Atlas (confirmed)...were there any others
this past year?

Thanks,
Randy
