[cobirds] nesting red-bellied woodpecker?

A friend of mine has seen and photographed the female red-bellied woodpecker at Walden Ponds twice in the past couple days. Other birders have reported it on ebird as well. He has seen it go into a tree cavity.

I guess I need some education on this finding. One web source said that they don't nest in CO. Certainly the range map doesn't reflect that.

Does a confirmed nesting of a species in a state change it's designation in some way?
