I had to sneak out in the rain to get this elusive little guy. I think they have pretty colours. They really flash when they fly.

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY

I can see why with that red marking on the back of his head Scorp and looks like he has yellow feathers underneath his wings! Lovely capture - I would even be tempted to crop more of the grass off so you can see more of him! great shot my friend!

Good shot. The colours are terrific, love that yellow stripe...almost like a racing stripe.

Wonderful markings and a great capture Nancy :)
My first thought on seeing this was the same as Patti's -a little less grass :)

What a lovely little flicker. I don't think we have them around here at this time of the year....at least I don't remember any that were marked so plainly as this. Very nicely done :)
