Longish file demonstrating the behavior of a Red-bellied Woodpecker at a potential nesting cavity. A one or two note call answered by a more distant bird, plus drumming. This call sequence has been used for the past week or more at this location. The file is a blend of two recordings within seconds of one another to get the drumming. The cadence is intact with the exception of brief human interruption and a dog bark. Normalization to -6dBA One pass with noise reduction to attenuate the background.
