Northern Flickers at a natural nest cavity in Waukesha County Wisconsin on June 1, 2025

With spring migration winding down I decided to focus on nesting birds today. Just walking around in a couple of parks I found 3 location with either a bird on a nest or a nest cavity with active birds. One of the nesting places was a pair of Northern Flickers. It did not appear any little ones where in this nest hole yet but probably that will be in a few days. It was a gorgeous day with plenty of sunshine, pleasant temps and low winds. Images were taken on June 1, 2025.
