Bird Brain Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Maybe not my best ever of a Northern Flicker, but the best one I could find easily. Also my most recent. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re quite loud. I often won’t even actively look for birds, depending on what I’m trying to find, and will only use audio clues to know what’s around and where the bird might be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look on the ground. And they seem to love cemetery lawns. Edited March 1, 2021 by floraphile additional info 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 The drumming season has started (at least up here) so plenty of noise going around. They often go and drum on the metal exhaust pipes (chimneys?) on top of houses. So if you here a metal rattling sound, it might be one.

Boy does it get annoying quick when they start hammering on that metal pipe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michelle Summers Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 The bird that got me started was a Red-shafted Northern Flicker, digging for ants in the yard. That was the first time I saw one, and the first time I saw a bird that was such a work of art ❤️ Here are a few favorite shots... 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonestranger Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 It usually takes me a while to find photos of specific species since most of my photos aren't tagged or organized other than by date. My choice of photo was easy to find this time, I knew one of my earliest photos was still one of my best so I just jumped right to the beginning of my gallery and there it was just a few rows down from the start. Taken back in 2009. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
