For those of you in the Boise area, I found a Williamson’s Sapsucker today, along the greenbelt, right by the Lander St. sewage treatment plant. There’s a blue sign along the bike path that says “Pedestrian Access.” Behind that are a couple
of pine trees. I was able to watch him work his way up into the top of one of the trees. A gorgeous bird, and one I haven’t seen along the greenbelt in several years. But the last time was in the same area. The Downy Woodpecker in one of the other trees was
a bonus.

I gave Larry and Missy Arnold the same directions and they’ve reported back that they had found the bird.
