Bad Bird Photos - Northern Flicker

 Sometimes a crappy photo is better than nothing.  Especially when trying to do identifications.

One of my favorite birds is the Northern Flicker.  And while my Merlin ap has heard them frequently, I haven't seen (or been able to photograph one since January 2024.  But I saw this guy in the back corner of my yard.  I knew it was too far away for a decent photo, but grabbed my camera to confirm the sighting. (I uve a zoom lens on my camera that I can use like binoculars).  

Anyway, yes it was a Northern Flicker, no doubt about it.  I thought I'd share anyway.
