Yes, I agree with male Red-bellied Woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus). Your location is inside of this bird's westernmost range. The little bird below looks like a male American Goldfinch in winter plumage although its somewhat difficult to be 100% positive.

I have a thriving colony here, several pairs nested in the tops of power poles in the pasture.

Was this in Travis County, TX? I'll update the location (or you can do so with the Edit link).
