Mother and child Flicker in my yard...it was very hard to photograph them through our 100 year old glass windows. I love the blurry one with the baby's eyes closed. He's loving that bug or grub Mama is feeding him.

SWEET! I'm so thrilled that you get so many AMAZING pictures and share them...
We have a Flicker...but by the time we unearth one of the cameras~ it's long gone!
You're a gift!

Wow Sis,
What an awesome experience to have these wonderful times of nature's blessing in your own yard. I miss living in the country, as a child I would sit and watch natures blessings all around me, and I could just sit for hours just looking around and finding some of the most interesting things to see. Thanks for sharing.

You must carry your camera with you wherever you go! So many times I will be in the back and see something I want to take a picture of, but the camera is in the house....and the shot is long gone by the time I run inside, get the camera, run back out! You pictures always make me smile!

Wonderful photos. We have baby flickers here, too, and I love seeing parents and babies together!

I just love Flickers! I don't know why, but we don't have any around here anymore. Used to, though, and I always enjoyed watching them and hearing their song! I agree with the others ---- you must always have your camera with you. Wish I could remember to carry mine with me!
