Awesome sighting! They’re truly fascinating.

Did you know Roadrunners roost in trees? This lovesick male was cooing, looking for a mate. 🪶

Oh no! We had to cap ours to prevent Gila Woodpeckers from intruding.

This is a Northern Flicker! Don’t feel bad if you guessed Gilded; Merlin misidentified it based on the first image. 🪶

Is this a Northern or Gilded Flicker? (SE Arizona) answer later today… 🪶

It’s pretty well-known… AZ Highway 86 before Three Points

Friendly reminder- Valentine’s Day is one week away. 💕
Also, apparently nesting season is happening soon. 🪶 🙈

That’s actually a great observation! Most of their diet is carrion & they spend a lot of time on the ground.

Flying into the weekend like… 🪶
