    Formerly split under the name Yellow-shafted Flicker, this eastern woodpecker was combined with the western Red-shafted Flicker with both lumped into the Northern Flicker in 1982.

    Northern Flicker, Downy Woodpecker

    I'm not sure what is happening here. I heard a bit of a commotion during a walk this morning. Then I noticed this Downy Woodpecker moving around an opening in a dead tree with a flicker in it. Maybe the Flicker took the Downy's spot?

    Northern flicker (male)

They inhabit the typical habitat of any woodpecker but are often seen foraging on the ground for insects, which...

    Got lucky and caught this guy emerging from his hole. I didn't even now he was in there at first. I was just looking up at the tree and noting the woodpecker holes, then he stuck his head out.

    Northern Flicker, American Robin

    A lousy photo but a fun story. This Flicker was mooching around under a Hawthorn, occasionally eating fallen berries. A bunch of Robins up in the Hawthorn didn't like it, and were shrieking their displeasure at it. The Flicker then flew up to this tree nearby, a robin hot on it's tail. The...
