The Northern Flicker… not sure how they behave in your neck of the woods, but here in Montana these local Montana Flickers (MFs for short) have a very specific skill set.

This MF cannot tell wood from metal.
See a gutter? …tap-tap-tap…

“Hmm, maybe I just need to try harder…”
…tap-tap-tap…tap-tap-tap… TAP-TAP-TAP!

Metal flashing? Obviously prime real estate.

There goes that MF again…
…tap-tap-tap…tap-tap-tap… TAP-TAP-TAP!

At this point I’d like to officially propose a rebrand:
Metalpeckers.

All in favor?

The WPA (Waterfowl Production Area) where I was visiting these owls is closed for a few months to protect the nesting birds, which I am all for, but I do miss seeing and photographing these GHOs. I’ll hopefully see them again in July!

My daughter turns 15 in a few days. Fun fact, in Montana kids get their drivers license at 15. What does this have to do with this image? Well, it encapsulates this experience… powerful and free (her, the eagle) terrified and helpless (that’s me, the fish). Over dramatic? Absolutely. But then again….

Neither before nor since have I seen an elk with grey hair, but I think we really bonded over our shared experiences….like making weird noises when we stand up.

A go to knock knock joke, that always lands at home, was not so well received in the wild…

Knock Knock.
Who’s there?
Who.
Who who?
Is there an owl in here?

Maybe it’ll work for you…
