Cobirders,
The Douglas County spot for American Three-toed Woodpeckers has been reliable, although I have not been up there in about six weeks. Take Hwy 67 west from Hwy 85 at the town of Sedalia for approximately 9.94 miles to the intersection of Rampart Range Road. You can turn left, pull over on the left side and park in the small lot by the pay phone (in itself a historical artifact) or in the big parking lot just up to the right. It is best to just listen for them drumming. They respond more to a playback of drumming than squawking. There is usually Williamson’s Sapsuckers in the area as well.
Good Birding,
