Can you guess this bird native to Edmonton by JUST its call?
It's a weekly text-in game (780.492.2577) heard Thursdays AM from 7-7:30am MT on CJSR.

A simple line drawing of a Northern Flicker perched on a branch, holding a lit match in its talons.
In honour of the Northern Flicker hanging out on a streetlamp by the Kinsmen this morning, I present this one I drew last year. I like to think these birds are up to good trouble.

I just had 1 Chipping Sparrow, 2 American Robins, 6 White-crowned Sparrows, and 7 White-throated Sparrows at my pond at the same time, and it was the most incredible thing! β€οΈ

I don't see them today. They probably just touched down to eat and have a swim.
Still can't believe I saw 2!

I saw an eagle today!! π
My first time seeing one in Edmonton. It was soaring above 66th street near the Argyle casino area. It made the crow that was chasing it looks like sparrow. (size)
Wow!!! π¦

Saw this Cooper's hawk last September on my birthday and loved the way the fall leaves framed it.

One of 2 red-breasted nuthatches that I counted for the #yegchristmasbirdcount in 2024. I also counted 1 downy woodpecker, 15 house finches, 11 house sparrows, 3 magpies, 1 northern flicker, 1 pigeon, and 2 blue jays. #yegbirds #yegwildlife
