Three-toed woodpeckers, Skyline Divide Trail‏ Natalie Whitman 8/26/13

Saw an adult feeding two squeaky kids, then later a solo adult for a total of four birds, all seen about 1/2 mile up from the trailhead. It seems that they are working over specific individual firs pretty thoroughly (vs. flitting from tree to tree as I am accustomed to seeing our usual suspects do), so might be readily found in the same vicinity.
