Hey Everybirdy, WOW!! Today was a FIRST for our yard. We were graced with a Northern Flicker in our "feeder" tree. Now you have to realize that our yard used to be a part of a farmer's field, so we have no brushy places, only a couple of big trees! But this beautiful "yellow hammer" as my husband's grandfather called them, came to investigate! A first for our yard.
