Watching garden through lobby window. Suddenly movement right below where I'm standing. A normally skittish flicker. Bird has no idea I'm there. Poking around in crevices and ground for grub. Total blend into surroundings except for head marking. If there was a hawk in vicinity that red triangle would be a beacon to food. I've never before been this close to a flicker. Big woodpecker, bigger than a robin. |
