Hi all,
I went downstairs a few minutes to check on a bird I had seen fly off the deck. It was as I suspected a Flicker. And then just 2 or 3 minutes later there were 5 Flickers all in view at the same time! I've never seen more than 2 before. One was making that "chirping" call they do. All 5 were searching for insects and once or twice one got on the hanging seed feeder but didn't stay long. - Jim
