Love the background....these are cute little birds and not always easy to image due to their sort of restless nature.

Another image of one of the Northern Flickers visiting my feeders lately.....I have seen 2 pairs in the last 3 weeks or so. I see them around this area frequently but they have avoided my set up except during extreme winter. Not sure why they have become more friendly but they are probably the most striking woodpecker we have in terms of color and pattern.

Looks like National Geographic, nice work Joel. The Northern Flicker from last week was very good, this week's is even better. Makes me want to take the rest of day off and head into the woods for a few hours before sunset.....

This has become a favorite of mine already. Really like the pink, etc. Have no idea if it is a male or female - sure emotes female.

I went on a trip to Costa Rica last month. Lots of birds down there! These were taken with my 70-300L and 5DS. Would have loved to have something something longer or faster (or both).
