Nature Walks – More Northern Flickers

Northern Flickers fly around our area all the time. I love them. I just learned something new about them too. In the Western portion of the state, the Northern Flickers have a red shaft around their throat, whereas in the eastern portion of the state, they have a yellow shaft. In my area, I see the red-shafted flickers all the time, though I am also in the zone where I can see either the red or yellow shafted flickers. I haven’t seen any yellow ones yet though, just the red.

Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
