Lift Off - Northern Flicker (Yellow-shafted) - (Colaptes auratus)

Hello All!

 

I was heading down a small hill (we only have small, if any hills in Winnipeg) and spotted a Northern Flicker foraging for food at the bottom of the hill. Just then some walkers came by and startled the bird. I like seeing its yellow feathers which differentiates this from the Red-shafted variant which is found in the western parts of North America.

 

Thank you for stopping by and for your comments. I do love hearing from you! Have a marvelous day!
