Colaptes auratus
I think it's a northern flicker, or a woodpecker, I could just use your insight. Suggest if you know! Thanks.
Seen near think brush areas, most likely lives in the woods behind our house.
He is incredibly timid, and if you make the slightest noise or movement will fly away. I was in my basement, which is supposedly quiet and he heard me trying to be quiet and snap a photo. It's incredible how elusive he is; I haven't seen him since these photos, which was Sat. April 12th. I'm looking forward to finding him again! He's definitely my favorite bird in my habitat.
