Reminds of one here the last few days who has been probing the same 10
square feet of grass.
We had a handsome male Towhee here today double-clutching for hours to
move snow while seed searching.

A pair of flickers just followed one after other up trunk of large ash, on E
side of tree. After one flew, the other has clung to the trunk, with its head
folded back, bill down into its feathers, in “roosting” position, if you can
imagine. A red v located very weirdly at the top off the body.,
Yesterday had our foy FLICKER, a male. Today we had a female.
Beautiful birds!

YS Flicker on our suet in Ovid. Only other winter flicker we have seen
in 20+ yrs here was a sad pile of feathers under a cedar tree found in
February 2012.
Also have now been able to see both 2 male and 2 female redpolls
simultaneously, so definitely have at least 4, am guessing between 4-8
At the suet feeder yesterday--
The back view of her made my mind buck for a fun split-second: "what the
hey-hoo is wrong with that red-belly?"
I suppose we are always "discovering" "new" species in our hearts, because it's
so delightful to be full of nothing but possibility for a timeless mill
Just have my first FLICKER of the year in our English Walnut tree here in Union
Springs.
