  1. yellow-shafted flicker

    A Yellow-Shafted Flicker is a subspecies of the larger group known as "Northern Flickers" which are medium-sized woodpeckers native to North America. It is characterized by its yellow underwing and undertail feathers, contrasting with the red-shafted flicker found in western North America. Other unique features include a grayish brown back with black bars, a black crescent-shaped mark on its chest and a red nuchal (back of the neck) crescent. Both male and female Yellow-Shafted Flickers have these traits, but males can also be identified by a black or red malar (mustache-like) mark on their face. The birds are also known for their distinctive calls and their tendency to forage on the ground for ants and beetles.
