Description
I built this 12 hole bird condo years ago. It's huge. It is about 40 feet up in the air.The funny thing about it is.... All the birds build nests "ON TOP" of the birdhouse! Of course, I don't think the holes are big enough for Northern Flicker, but none the less he stays on the top of the condo now. So, it's no use for the Chickadees, Martins, Nuthatches, or the smaller birds to try to build their nest in it. Every morning this Female Flicker drums away on the roof. Hammer time. She has a good tone going. Her husband is not far off. He's bathing underneath the house in the birdbath. Awwwh, nature is so very interesting isn't it?

Great shot Kym! Maybe the bird house is full of old nesting material, has it ever been cleaned out? This Flicker probably likes the penthouse view anyway :)) v/f
