Northern Flicker (Colaptes auratus)
This flicker seemed to be searching the lawn for grubs as it probed the grass with its sharp bill. It is a member of the woodpecker family, and is one of the few woodpecker species that migrate. This photo was taken on the UMCES campus, Cambridge, MD, February 14, 2013.
