"I once overheard a northern flicker talking to a telephone pole!"
"I remember it like it was yesterday...the northern Flicker said to the telephone pole...'YOU ARE COMPLETELY DEAD TO ME!!!!'"
My passion is photographing birds (and other creatures) in various scenarios and then writing about what I think is REALLY happening in the photos! . Come on in and read my blog! All stories/dialogues has been created by me and ACTUAL - REAL photographs taken, by Jean Coulton, that's me too., Photos are NOT photoshopped! I hope you will enjoy every one of the quirky photos I got to take over the years! :)

Hide Your Food!
Here we see
a juvenile red-headed woodpecker hiding food in a tree crevice, under the bark
of a tree.
Word on the street is that the red-headed woodpecker has been known to wedge a live grasshopper
or beetle into a crevice with plans to eat it later!
That poor grasshopper or beetle must be thinking "This is NOT how I thought I would go out!"
