Thanks, Chris.  I still didn't get the back markings in sharp focus.

Ric Carter, on the LUG, identified it as a Red-bellied Woodpecker, though the belly is not really red. From my searches, I think he is correct.

These woodpeckers have been around our area for a number of years, and I have 
referred to them as Ladder-backed Woodpeckers.  However, the reference books 
show the range of the Ladder-backed to be the southwestern US and Mexico. I 
can't find a better match of these markings.

Anyone got a better idea?
