K Dixon 1952 Centurus aurifrons Jan 30. 11 mi. NW Jourdauton, 700 ft., Atascosa Co., Texas Sunny with scattered clouds, calm until 11:00 a.m. Golden-fronted Woodpeckers were common and couple were in dense mesquite-brush growth on Eisenhour Ranch; both in closely spaced mesquites near ranch-house and more open growth across paved road to E. I took a ? ( ) in dense mesquite near road; bird it had been associated with in flight into clump flew on to N and gave check check check call, piercing, suggestive of a worm wound. I took this bird ( ). One call recorded at time as chir-irr-ack of nasal quality was given by the ? bird. I saw a pair near windmill E of road and heard others. Later I watched a ladder- backed Woodpecker foraging on a trunk; another woodpecker worked up the trunk below the scalaris and the latter flew away. The second proved to be an aurifrons. I took a ? (655) in same patch of woods where other pair taken.... Bird was only wounded and gave a chicken-like squawk when handled.
