I saw 4 maybe 5 Red-headed Woodpeckers this afternoon at McKee-Beshers 
WMA in Mont Co.  I parked in the 1st lot off the eastern end of Hunting 
Quarter Rd, walked the path to the clearing, took a left and followed 
the swampy area for about 1/2 mile. RHs were located where the swamp 
takes a hard right turn. Habitat looks very similar to area they 
frequent at Hughes Hollow.  Nothing else unusual.  Did complete the 7 
woodpecker "slam."  Also got bit by a Mosquito!
