Downtown Winthrop - Sitting on the deck at the Duck for dinner yesterday, we saw a large woodpecker-shaped bird, flying back and forth from the canal area to the river, I assume. It had a white-banded neck, red breast and dark-colored back and wings. The only bird fitting that description that I can find is the Ringed Kingfisher, which we shouldn't have around here. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Sarah

Bird Sighting in Winthrop: ID help?
Thanks to Sarah Knudsen for sending in the following observation. My guess would be female Belted Kingfisher. Can anyone else help? Thanks!
