CA birding Feb 2015 Day 4

We stopped a few places to look for birds on our way to the airport our last day.
Our GPS took us to a neighborhood cul-de-sac instead of the Buena Vista Lagoon we were looking for,
but we were rewarded by this Nuttall's Woodpecker flying across the street in front of us.
