“Ant-eater”
The Northern Flicker is taxonomically a woodpecker but its chosen food source is ant nests in grassland. Rather shy and nervous – usually seen flying away from you and flashing (flicking) it’s white rump.

Hi Richard
Great photos of the Northern Flickr. Was it on your property? We have seen one a few times in the last few days.
Yes Tom, we have lots of ants’ nests in the grass and they love them ’em
