the northern flicker shop


Call me crazy but I have just been goofing around at Cafe Press, setting up a shop entitely devoted to my noisy but charming little friend, the Northern Flicker. (We get the red-shafted variety here.) It's really just a fun project, but bird nerds, if you have the chance please spread the word! And for my next act I will open a restaurant that only serves carrot sticks.

Flickers spend a lot of time hanging from my suet feeder! :) They sound like this: http://www.pond5.com/stock-footage/490467/p00330-northern-flicker-calling-and-flying.html

I love flickers! We have a couple that have decided that our suet feeder is very yummy and it's quite amusing to watch as the larger than the feeder birds grapple with it.
