Regardless of how old this thread is, it was still very entertaining to read. I can empathize with the original poster, as, we are in Arizona doing our snowbird thing, and we have a much smaller woodpecker here, Gilded Flicker, and they occasionally get together of several RV's and try to outdo each other pecking on the top of the A/C units, first one, then they stop, and somewhere else in the area another one plays his game, and this can go on for maybe a half hour. This is a very irritating way to be woke up in the morning.
