A new woodpecker in town
This little guy was digging around my rocks this morning. I have never seen this one in the neighborhood before. I got my handy-dandy bird book out and found out it is a Northern Flicker. It is a type of woodpecker, but it does not drill holes in trees and so relies on soft and dead trees for nesting. It forages on the ground for food such as ants and insects.
