Identificaciones de fdmolly

Here on the central Montana prairies, the flickers find alternative ways to find bugs -- like by searching in the cracks in sidewalks and concrete!

Note its little friend, the Killdeer to the left.

See photo. Records in recent years indicate this species may be almost as regular (though rare) in occurrence in Cimarron county as Plumbeous. Some may be overlooked due to relative difficulty of identification. Also submitted to (and accepted by) Oklahoma Bird Records Committee.
