A northern flicker sips from a birdbath in New England, fall 2025.
I looked out and saw that the water in the birdbath was a solid block of ice. I poured in enough warm water that the ice broke free, so I tossed the frozen block onto the ground and filled the bath with warm water. Within 10 minutes, a northern flicker arrived and took a few sips. What a design on this bird.

Handsome fellow!
I am fortunate to have a heated waterer/bath for “my” birds. They do love the proximity to the feeders I think plus they have a very lengthy perch since I use a 50 ft. hvy. duty elec. cord from their area to my back deck…
