"BIRD FASHIONISTA"
Northern Flicker, Bohemian Waxwing, etc. - 6 Photos
As we are spending more time in our homes, perhaps for some, pyjamas might be the new fashion trend.
However, in the bird world, it's a time of baths and personal grooming, etc. as courtship and pairing is well in hand.
This was the first opportunity I have had to see a Northern Flicker groom. Usually, they are busy birds, drumming, calling & digging out insects from trees. And who made that rule; "You can't mix polka dots with stripes". The flicker certainly wears both in splendour!
