The Flicker

BY |. d. O'Donnell, Supervisor of
Irrigation.
The flicker is generally known as
peckers, though he has characteristics
which mark him apart from all wood
peckers.
He is a bird of many accomplish
ments and a gentleman in every act.
See him with his mate and you will
agree that the old-time Alphonse and
CASTOR of the Sunday funny papers
have nothing on the flicker when it
comes to being polite.
Because of his many accomplish
ments and varying habits this bird
has acquired about 40 different
names. none of which reflects on his
character. and it may be understood.
therefore. that this bird is generally
we'll liked.
In size the flicker is about like the
pigeon. though it is only in size that
he resembles any bird. In makeup he
is the clown of birds-a large patch
of scarlet feathers on the back of his
head. a patch of white feathers over
his rump, a golden yellow lining to
his wings, large black polka dots
cover his sides. and a black crescent
on his breast. There is no monotony
in his color scheme.
In nesting the flicker usually choos-
es a hollow in a decaying tree trunk
or limb. sometimes not over l 5 feet
from the ground and other times as
high as GO feet from the ground. The
nest is not padded up with soft grass
es and feathers as is the custom OF
most birds. A layer of small particles
of wood is put on the floor of the hole
and on this the eggs are laid. On
the average six eggs are laid. and If
perchance these are stolen by boys or
other birds the female flicker prompt
! ly lays an additional setting.
AS the flicker is classed as a wood
pecker, YOU naturally expect him to
take his living from the trunks and
limbs of trees. Instead. you will find
him on the ground a great portion of
tlt lllilt. ne ldS an hpPS
tite for ants and he is an artist in
satisfying this appetite. With his
long bill he stires up the ants nest
and then with his sticky brush tipped
tongue he gathers up the ants. He is
also fond of earthworms and grubs.
In feeding the young flicker follows
the plan of the doves and pigeons
The insects and worms are swallowed
by the parent bird and later "unswal-
lowed" and deposited in the throats
of the little ones.
Farmers living in sections where
chinch bugs are pest will be glad to
know that flickers eat chinch bugs in
great numbers. AS an indication of
the appetite of the flicker for insects,
we have it on good authority that a
single stomach has been found to con-
tain as many as 5000 ants and an
other to contain over 1000 chinch
bugs in addition to other food
The next time you see a flicker be
observing enough to notice that he
mods his head to you and you should
return the courtesy-he is a friend
of yours.

have YOU WEAK LUNGS?

Do colds settle on your chest or in your
bronchial tubes5 Do coughs hang on, or
are you subject to throat troubles?
Such troubles should have immediate
treatment with the strengthening powers
OF SCOTS Emulsion to guard against
consumption which so easily follows.
scott Emulsion contains pure cod liver
oil which peculiarly strengthens the res
piratory tract and improves the quality of
the blood; the glycerinc in it soothes and
heals the tender membranes of the throat.
SCOTS is prescribed by the best special
sts. You can get it at any drug store.
