I think the yellow shafted northern flicker is among the most beautiful of birds in North America. And this photo proves it.

Thank you for your great comments, Michelle, Kerry, and Eivor! I appreciate your supportive feedback! I think the flicker is an extremely striking bird, with it's "polka dot" feathers, black chest badge, and little red streak. Thanks again for your comments! :-)

Thank you, Shelly! This is a red-shafted northern flicker. The underside of the wing feathers and tail feathers are a reddish orange color, and the male has a red "moustache." In other parts of the country, there is the yellow-shafted variety; the undersides are yellow, and the "moustache" is moved to the back of the head. The flicker has some very distinctive calls.

Thank you Ann, and Sam! :-) I also like flickers because of how colorful their "under" feathers are, when they fly by.

Thank you, Collen! I was walking around in Bel-Mar nature park, and a man saw my camera as I approached him and pointed-out two flickers he had been watching. The second flicker was on the other side of the trunk (in shade). Thanks again for your comments!
