I found a bird on the road fairly good sized a little larger then a blue jay had a needle like beek partial red neck at the back of his head light tan with brownish v shaped marking on the wing very pretty bird the body was a very light cream tan colored with brown markings. . I took hime to abilene animal hospital the bird was very calm in my hand as if it trusted me it knew i was getting it help it was a very cold day, abilene animal hospital could not do any thing for it the, told me i needed to call game warden, then a gentalmen came and looked at the bird said it was some kind of wook pecker then the bird perked up a little flew out of my hand then it flew back to me and landed back in to my hand with out any chase as if it trusted me. I took it out side put on bush it made a squack then flew a way, UM i think it was a for the bird to thank me for saving its life not sure, but ive looked at pitchures of wood pecker and i can. see any thing that matches him any one?
