A northern flicker perched on a branch. These beautifully coloured birds took me by surprise when I moved to Squamish - I hadn’t seen one before. Fun fact: Northern flickers typically sleep while in a standing or upright position, often clinging vertically to a surface like a tree trunk, pole, building, or a suitable cavity. This is characteristic behaviour for woodpeckers, known as “vertical clinging”.
