Watch this video of my flickers at their nest box.
This pair of flickers appears to have adopted this nest box
as their home. First you will see the male drumming on the roof. Later the
female appears from within the box. I believe the male drumming on the roof is
announcing his territory. The flickers moving into this nest box would not have
been possible if I didn't trap starling. Starlings are an introduced
species that competes with flickers for nest sites. For more information
