Today I saw around 5 or 6 Red-shafted Flickers in my yard. What's more is that the males were having a display contest consisting of head swaying and tail-fanning while giving out a
wika-wika-wika calling, then freezing and staring at the other. I was able to record it all but I can't figure out how to get it on here, sorry. I was also able to get some amazingly close and detailed pictures. I hope you enjoy!

The female Flicker
One male showed up.
Then the second male showed up.
They have their first display contest. (That I see at least)
One of the males approaches the female (who is walking to the left) after the first display contest.
The male then forages for food.
And the second display contest between the two male Red-shafted Flickers.
