It makes me wonder if one day, God said to himself, “you know I love my Woodpeckers…all are beautiful, but let’s try to spruce them up a bit…make them a little richer in color, a tad more glamorous. And thus the Flicker was made. Well, that’s how I figure it anyway.
This Female Yellow-Shafted Flicker is showing off all the stunning tones and colors that make this member of the woodpecker family so special.
