My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Northern Flicker and Great Egret photos

10 years ago

For me, getting good bird shots seems to be mostly about luck--being at the right spot at the right moment and on the correct side of the car. In these photos, I was extremely lucky to be close enough and to have the birds not get scared and fly away.

    Very nice pics! I enjoy seeing the red-shafted flicker - we get the yellow-shafted flickers here.

    Your pictures are great! I've had only one Northern Flicker and that was about 3 months ago and I've got 3 suet feeders! Lucky you!
