Caption
A pair of Northern (Red Shafted) Flickers (Colaptes auratus) "dance" with each other in a dead hackberry tree between Tavasci Marsh [Arizona] and Peck's Lake [Arizona]. They were joined by an adolescent later. The male Flicker gives us the loud call, and his wife purrs and coos between calls.
