Never Give Up

I have seen several Northern Flickers recently, but missed so many photo opportunities. This photo is not perfect, but I love this species. What a gorgeous bird.

This particular photo was taken from the Shook Walkway Bridge over the Miami River. I saw him flying over the river, but lost him in the trees. I never give up that easy ... so I walked back toward the tree where I last saw him and there he was.

Flicker!

The Northern Flicker is a larger woodpecker. I don’t know why, but when I see one flying, it takes me a while to identify it. They are unique and I should be quicker .. but I guess I have a mental block.

This is a Northern Flicker. Its a male. Several of them were in the grass along the hiking trail at Stillwater Prairie Reserve earlier this week. It’s been a while since I have seen a Flicker. They are such a cool bird.

Made For Working On Wood

The Northern Flicker is a very cool bird. This is a ‘medium size woodpecker’ with great colors! One look at that beak and you know its made to work on wood.

As you walk through the woods next time, listen close .. during nesting season they call out: “Peah”. (Sorry, best I can do).
