Sounds like a Northern Flicker -- the link below is to a Wikipedia photo, but it shows the front, not the back with the red "V" on the head. The second link shows a shot of a dead one showing the "V" very clearly.
They come in yellow-shafted and red-shafted, depending on where you live. Any search engine will give you more info.
Hope this helps!

may be a lesser- or greater- spotted woodpecker.
