With the cooler weather, the Northern Flickers are returning to the area, these birdies are members of the Woodpecker family and one of Mama's favorite birds, mostly because ants are one of their favorite foods....and Mama does NOT like ants!
Here is some Fun Flicker Footage:
(As always, feel free to visit our YouTube Channel HERE)
They have the cutest black bibs, don't you think?!

I guess if we ever have ants in the house we need to get one of these birds into the house too!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to decide if you are Santa Rosy or Rosy Santa! either way I love you. I also love that fountain and all the birds that visit.. the fountain itself is beautiful
ReplyDeleteNiece Rosy,
ReplyDeleteFlurry of N. Flickers is wonderful. I love them ...probably the largest of the birds that reg. visit our suet and sometimes they hang on to the edge of a nut and berry feeder while enjoying the seeds.
Last week we watched a Nature (PBS) program on the many varieties of Woodpeckers. I had no idea of the sizes, colors facts of many of them
Hugs AC
You're a cutie pie Rosy. Yes you are.
ReplyDeleteI love your backyard and tell your mom I hate ants too.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. Scritches to the pups and my very best to your peeps. ♥
We love seeing the birdies that visit your fountain. You make a cute Santa's helper, Rosy.
ReplyDeleteYou have the bestest Bird-TV ever sweet Rosy!
ReplyDeleteThat is a cool bird
ReplyDeleteThe black bibs are very nice indeed - look like they were painted on the flickers:). Good that they eat ants. The woodpeckers around here just peck at our chimney and drive our Dad crazy.
