A very large, crow sized woodpecker, second only to the extremely rare ivory bill in North America. Color basically blackish brown, with white underwings. Red on head, makes a loud, ringing, yek,yek,yek,yek, call, similar to laughter.

Answer 2

I saw a beautiful one outside my window today - it had a black head, a splash of red at its back end, under its tail and the tail was only about 2 feathers (quite narrow). The tail feathers were really long. From the neck down it was brown, but it was like a gradient (dark brown at the top, light brown at the bottom).
