I haven't seen one of these since I was a kid. Looks like a spot of blood on his breast there. What kind of woods are you finding him in?

The first image in particular works for me. They certainly can be tough to find but then that is what keeps them safe from predators like Barred owls ..........

Thanks for the comment Mitch.
He is almost always in a cedar tree. And usually he is 5 to 8 feet from the ground. This day he was about 10 up there. I think someone chased him up there. I usually go towards night fall. I don't want to give up his location to predators too long before he is in his element, night time.

Those are great. I just love the first one and I'm so jealous that you have located one.
