Northern Flicker (Colaptes auratus)

Here is one of the Flicker photos from a couple days ago. He started out feeding at the suet block on the opposite side of the tree where the preivous photograph was taken but shifted over to the south side and by some lucky fluke positioned himself where the afternoon light and background added to the image. Sometimes one just gets lucky!

Outstanding Deanne! Love everything about this shot. Luck and talent is what makes fine photography ;)
 
What a super shot, he looks like he's just had his Christmas lunch and couldn't eat another bite!(Eyes just beginning to close!)
