I originally reported a MALE Williamson's Sapsucker on January 27, 2016 at my home in Genesee at 7500'. This is out-of season, as males start arriving here March 30 and early April. This male remained from Jan 27-30. It was always in one Ponderosa Pine at 35', where it drilled 100+ wells. The male appeared twice (that I saw) in February, on Feb 14 and Feb 22.
A FEMALE WISA appeared on February 24, 2016. It was tapping on a different Ponderosa Pine thirty feet away at 25' height. It was gone when I returned to take its photo.
Birders are welcome to my house at 1298 Northridge Court, Golden (7 minutes off I-70 Lookout Mountain or Genesee Park). But because I saw them only three times total in February, it's not worth the trip unless you want to see the drill holes. The male's ponderosa is marked with a yellow ribbon (thirty feet from my garage door, downhill and next to the driveway.) Call me at 303-968-4750 if you want to come, and I'll be on the lookout for you.
