Where are you located ?
We used to have a Red-Headed Woodpecker many years ago here, but they are very uncommon!
What's that tree with pale fruits ? Looks like poison Ivy fruits to me, but doesn't make sense it that's a tall tree ...

Thank you! I am in Greenville, South Carolina in the US. These were taken at Conestee Nature Preserve. I've seen Red-Headed Woodpeckers pretty much every time I have gone (since September.) I've seen both the adults and juveniles each visit.
