Northern Flicker - Enjoying the View
On April 19, 2013 I saw a male flicker working on the nest hole for this nest. A flicker was hard at work on April 27 and on May 7 I saw a flicker emerge from the nest hole and fly across the river. Yesterday, on May 11, I saw the male poking his head out of the hole. I watched for about ten minutes. He seemed to be enjoying the view.
The flicker has a eye membrane to protect the bird from flying pieces of wood.
