Robert,

Are you sure this was a flock of flickers, and not a flick of flockers??

(Sorry, couldn't resist!)

Subject: [Tweeters] "Flock" of Flickers

Hey Tweets,

Don't know how unusual this is but at this very moment there's no less
than 5 Flickers "lounging" about in the upper branches of my Big Leaf
Maple. Three males, one female and one unknown (refuses to reveal
enough of itself for a good gender check). They're not uncommon around
here, but can't say I've seen five together before.

Thoughts?
