Introducing my resident Flicker. A Flicker is a large woodpecker and I just love it when he comes to visit. He likes to eat breakfast, lunch and his afternoon snack here. I caught him enjoying some crabapples that never fell from the tree. Lucky for him. And lucky for me too, I love taking his picture. But what I really wanted to show you was his tongue…
Check it out.

Kind of gross, but amazing that you got it on camera!!! I guess I never realized that birds had tongues...
Oh, Carin... no question, it's awesome! Great pictures! That's not a bird I'm familiar with.
What a beautifully captured picture! This Ozarks farm chick is just a little (LOT) jealous here.
Ya'll have a wonderfully blessed day from the hills and hollers of the Missouri Ponderosa!!!
