White-headed Woodpecker
This picture was taken in Cabin Lake, Oregon. The environment is the transition between conifer forest and high desert, typical of much of eastern central Oregon.
A number of different species of woodpeckers thrive here, but this appears to the be dominant one.
The picture was taken at a small pool of water that is present year round; the only one in several square miles. A stream of woodpeckers visit this every morning providing many opportunities for images.

The White-headed Woodpecker is such an unusual looking bird. I never heard of them before – thanks for sharing the pic.
Very nice photo.
