[birding] OSU Sapsuckers

[bouchdon at peak.org]

Hello,

I was walking to the bus stop along Jefferson on campus. At 11th street I
heard the bounced "tap-tap, tap-tap" characteristic of a Red-breasted
Sapsucker. I found it perched on a utility pole. As I continued to walk, I
heard a scraping sound on a tree trunk. Another sapsucker, just a few feet
away, hitched around into view.
