I think Flickers are the most beautiful birds that fly into our backyard. the flash of red that you see when they are landing or taking-off, the red under their tail that is visible while they are perched on a limb, and the slash of black across their throat is unmatched by the others. We have two or three pairs that stay here year round to take advantage of the suet we place out for them and the woodpeckers. They are one of the reasons that I am reluctant to ever move from here even though I would sure love to live in a warmer climate.
