I had ruled out yellow-bellied Sapsucker because I only had heard the
classic call of sapsuckers in this woods.  What I heard was the
classic slower decending time with this call and not in doublets.  I
spent 12 hours at this site.  I guess the result is I can not list the
drum with the call of the red-head and I should treat it the drum as
non-confired. To bad for the library. I guess I need to return to this
site for more visual.
