So, if there is a red-headed woodpecker less than a 10 minute bike ride from your home, yes. You go see it. Took a 20 minute pause in my morning to grab some looks, some sub-par photos, and yeah, I'm glad I went. Perhaps the little buddy will stick around and maybe even get their full red head in due time.

| This immature bird is coming into its red head. Another indicator of its age is that its white wing atches have some black bars, |
 |
| Red-headed woodpeckers can be found in New York, but like, not reliably where we live, but in other parts of NY, NJ, and places south of us. But a small amount tend to show up every year in the city. |
 |
| This bird was hanging out in Marine Park, and as for exactly where.... oh I just can't quite recall... |
 |
| (It was at the entrance near Stuart Street and the Avenue T intersection....) |
 |
| I hope this bird sticks around into the weekend, I'd love to see it in some better light. |
 |
| Trying out some infrastructure.... a lamp post. |
 |
| Potentially just seeking out advice from some urban birds. |
