    It’s 11:00 a.m. Fri. Aug. 27, and I have 4 yellow shafted common flickers (woodpeckers) in my backyard, in Brampton, Ontario. Amazing. I have never seen them here before. We get daily visits from plenty of sparrows, chickadees, cardinals, mourning doves, finches, blackbirds, sometimes bluejays, but this is the first time I have seen common flickers. They seem to like it as they are foraging, possibly for ants, in our untamed natural ground cover (violets, ladyslipper, dandelions, grass and a variety of small plants). After about a half hour here, they have moved on.
