Please remove the spot from the mission woodpeckers from SW USA. I thank for the invitation and will be pleased to add my spottings to a new mission for NA Woodpeckers if it is created some day.

Hi Jorge4, can you please remove your Mexican pictures from the US mission as they are outside the current range. The owner expanded the mission range beyond the defined limits without permission and the management team have reset it to the original range which is SW USA only. If you are using Chrome you may not be able to remove the mission, in that case switching to Firefox will allow the delete process. If you still have problems please comment here and some of the Ranger team can do it for you.

I accepted the invitation to the mission of USA Southwestern woodpeckers but my pictures all are from Southeastern Mexico.

Species name suggested by Liam, and quite plaussible according to the Peterson guide and other comments. Thanks also to Gerardo Aizpuru
