Flicker, Golden-winged Woodpecker
This is one of our largest as well as noisiest Woodpeckers. When he
begins to shout his monotonous information about the the rain, * all
other birds may as well remain silent, for his clamor makes the
welkin ring•!
*Most writers render his song thus: “Wet, wet, wet, wet, wet, wet” etc.
