This is the time of the year when new young birds are bursting on the scene … the end of June / the beginning of July. Over the past few days I realized there were some new residents in our yard. It helps to learn the begging call of your local birds. I knew that some time spent looking for my local Northern Flicker Woodpecker Nest would be time well spent.
These images and video (video link for email subscribers) were taken just before supper last night. The BBQ was lit and the coals were getting hot. In the meantime I spent time with the Flicker Chicks. The images are in succession over about 10 minutes. Enjoy!
