The Local Bug Hunter

That long beak of the flicker was busy throwing dirt and dead grass everywhere - quite intent on his activities - rather than mine, so I was able to scoot fairly close to him

Lucky you to get so close and capture her amazing details! Such a unique shot with the grass that color. I love the Flickers' unique habit of eating from the ground so unlike the other woodpeckers. They're always a delight to see!
