A woodpecker. Why? Because it wound up in my backyard instead of forcing me to talk the park where you can barely see them anyway. I didn't know they apparently eat ground bugs.

Robots, Rabbits and Sarcasm. Come for the snark - stay for the random punctuation and nonlinear narrative. Don't say I didn't warn ya.
They'll eat anything that's buggy. Hell, they'll peck at corpses. They're opportunistic feeders. Think "Chickens' with a wood pecking beak.
ReplyDeleteNaaa... Really? That's amazing.
ReplyDeleteNorthern Flicker, I think you have the red-shafted variety there, though I could be wrong. We get yellow shafted ones here on the East Coast.
ReplyDeleteWhile I've seen them pecking at trees, we see Flickers on the ground going after ground insects on a very very regular basis.
It's probably 4 the best. They aren't making any noise on the ground. Otherwise we will have a fight.
