[EBB Sightings] Acorn Woodpeckers

I'm forwarding this message from Allison.


I have been birding in Wildcat and Tilden for a while but this was
this first time I have seen an ACWO there.  Heard the call first and
thought I was mistaken but then found it and sure enough it was.  As I
was watching them a nice (aren't they all) Varied Thrush popped into
view as well.
The pair of ACWO was near bottom of Rifle Range Trail around 8:20 this
morning. As you head down the trail they were right above a painted
yellow post on the right side of the trail; it looked like some kind
of water supply outlet.  Trail head is at end of Rifle Range Road in
Kensington, though it might still be El Cerrito there.
Would love to hear feedback on how common they are here. I have seen
them at Briones and east before.
