Description

Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...
Northern Flicker enjoying the warmth of the Sun on a Spring day...Reno, Nevada.

Northern Flickers (Colaptes auratus) are large, brown woodpeckers with a gentle expression and handsome black-scalloped plumage. On walks, dont be surprised if you scare one up from the ground. Its not where you would expect to find a woodpecker, but flickers eat mainly ants and beetles, digging for them with their unusual, slightly curved bill. When they fly you will see a flash of color in the wings, yellow if you are in the East, red if you are in the West, and a bright white flash on the rump.
