While the Northern Flicker sitting on a stick can be a beautiful bird, it can not be fully appreciated unless it is observed in flight. The yellow flight feathers are almost invisible until it opens its wings.

These are great! The first is a stunner and the BIF ones are show-stoppers!

Another amazingly beautiful post, thank you! I am enjoying your work and realizing, once again, that UHH has grown to the point that I miss a lot of good examples to learn from. Welcome to my buddy list.
Regards, Phil
