Wowzers! The yellow on the wings shows so well here. Sweet stop action and perfect timing capturing this flicker flying by.
Superb eye clarity with bonus catch light, sharp focus, ahhhmazing wing details and fine DOF.
Nice bird Photography Greenie!

A very good nature photo posted here! Your fine almost central composition captures a good in flight moment. Love those splayed out wings! Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely taken!

So awesome!! I feel like I can reach out and pet it!! I love the colors and the clarity! It looks so focused on where it's going by the look on its face. So cool. I like how you make it look so close. Thank you so much for sharing!! :D

Oh my! Great work getting this stunning capture of the Northern Yellow-shafted Flicker in flight. Very well photographed with beautiful natural light, sharp focus, and wonderful details and clarity in your image. Perfectly cropped and well composed shot. Your diffused background compliments your work beautifully. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing. Love this!

This is a interesting shot of the bird in flight! You have timed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

It certainly is a very handsome creature,Grace!
And your colorful and pleasantly lighted photograph of it as it flies along at low level makes for a very attractive picture too!
'Good Show',my friend!

The two images work very well together . You could mat them as a diptych to tell the full story. Very nice stop action that shows the details very well. You can really see the yellow shafts in this shot. Good background that is soft and colorful. The touch of red on the neck works quite well. Good details throughout. Well seen.

You catch the birds in the most interesting flight poses. We are able to observe the one wing from above and the underside of opposite wing as well as the coloring of the feathers. The bird is well placed to the right and stand nicely out from the non-obstructive background. The composition is well balanced and framed.
