While out-n-about shooting one subject I could hear some distant none stop calling of some sort of bird. The sound being unfamiliar to me and I had no idea as to what was calling but seemed like more than one.
Time to investigate and followed the sounds, then they went silent…then the calling resumed. It took a bit to narrow the sound down but all of a sudden the mystery was solved as I stared at a cavity in a tree. Two heads peered out of the opening as Mamma Flicker came to the tree with food.
This being a first for me as I watched this Northern Flicker family…you just never know what you’re going to stumble across while out-n-about.
