Message: Sighted Nov. 8 at Sunbrook Golf course in St. George, the Woodbridge nine. Completely red head with very distinct white stripe below the eye, very small one (almost a dot) above. The Sidley field guide is the closest representation--others I have checked do not show much of a white stripe. I reported this to the naturalist at Snow Canyon the next day and hope someone will try to get another look at this bird. I was not with any other birders, so have no one to confirm. If it is seen again, I would love to know. It was quite calm on the trunk of a small tree near the cart path and allowed me to get very close in the golf cart and view it from several angles.
