We have a family of 5 flickers in our backyard, we have watched them all summer and now that our grapes have ripened the flickers are eating grapes all day long! Surprising they can still fly straight, they have eaten so many!! They are difficult to photograph as they are very skittish, their bellies seem quite bloated!
Thank you so much for your comments and favs on my photos and for putting my sunrise photo on the French River on the top TT, what a nice surprise!! http://365project.org/radiogirl/365/2016-09-10
Beautiful capture! We had one coming and going throughout the summer, but never really sticking around. I don't know if they have territory issues with other woodpeckers but when the Red-Headed Woodpecker is around, the Flickers seems to stay elsewhere.
