Northern Flicker — size comparison — facts and sources
The northern flicker inhabits North American open forests, parks and woodland margins. It often gathers ants and other ground insects with a long tongue, also eating beetles and seasonal fruit.
Trees provide rest and breeding sites as in other woodpeckers. Feeding on lawns and clearings makes it readily encountered away from trunks, bent over anthills or short plants.
