My New ‘Bird Watcher’ Column: Flicker

IMG_4401-1

   I wrote about Northern Flickers for my column in The Record and Herald News today. The flicker here was photographed this spring drumming on my neighbor's chimney cap.

  I have seen them in the past week — mostly on the ground, looking for bugs.

   I will post a link to the column when it's available.

  • We’ve had a few around our condos this year for the first time that I can remember. They were having a field day with all of the ants. Great birds. I often see quite a few of them at Darlington in Mahwah, too.

  • Another nice alternate Thursday surprise!

    looking for bugs – they are “anting” – formic acid!
