  The recording contrasting male and female calls was of great help to us for identifying (we believe) the sex of an adult goose with angel wing condition. Thank you! For the curious, angel wing condition is a deformity caused by improper nutrition-typically bread thrown by well-meaning park goers-at a critical growth phase. “Angel wings” develop when primary feathers grow out before the “wrist” joint has developed the strength to support them. The result is turned-out wing tips bearing primary feathers that point out perpendicularly from the goose on both sides. If the developing condition is not addressed promptly while the goose is still young, it will result in a permanent disability and the goose’s lifelong inability to fly. It’s very sad to see. Please don’t feed bread-it turns to a gluey, indigestible substance in waterfowl, and suppresses their appetite for healthy foods. As an alternative, feed cracked corn, pellets formulated specifically for geese, or frozen vegetables which can be tossed in the water where they’ll quickly thaw. Frozen corn, peas and other vegetables are a very healthy and nutritionally appropriate goose treat! Romaine and red leaf lettuce are relished by geese too (but NOT iceberg lettuce, please).

  I looked this video up because I wanted to know what the "clear" call meant. It woke me up this morning, a little to early. I'm pretty familiar with flickers, there are quite a few where I am in the Denver suburbs, but I wasn't familiar with this call. It was accompanied by several blue jays who sounded angry. I thought they were angry at the flicker, but now I suspect there's was something else going on, maybe a hawk or an owl. I'm sitting on the porch as I type this, and all of the squirrels just scattered suddenly. It's been a couple of hours since the birds were making all the noise, but I wonder if whatever they were upset about has returned.

  Well winter is not the only time squirrels eat sap. Here in Tn. I have watched the squirrels eat sap all year round as long as sap is leaking out of trees. Hornets sap trees through the hot months & squirrels find the sap spots & go after them. Animals are smarter than most human so maybe we humans need to eat tree sap, lol.

  I found one in Oregon as I was walking on my way to work, I guess it was gotten by an owl or a cat or something but it was just an explosion of bright orange and black borrowed feathers on the sidewalk. I collected them all, MBTA be damned, they were beautiful, and moved to a little grave Shrine in the woods so he had a respectful death

  I know this sounds stupid, but where can we go to track? It seems my only options near me are a nature preserve and peoples' property. I have found tracks in the preserve and attempted to follow them, but I also am trying to respect the sanctity of the preserve itself and not tromp around on everything if that makes sense.

  I often check google maps in the satellite view when I visit new areas. Sometimes even small strips of wild space are worth exploring. I found a small forest around the edge of a high school at my previous place that was filled with deer and actually gave me a lot of opportunities to practice. I'm not sure what the rules would be in your nature preserve about going off trail, but if it's allowed then you should be fine, but definitely be mindful of your impact. Go slow and leave no trace. Winter is usually lower impact because things are dormant. In the early stages, it's not uncommon to devote a lot of time towards finding new locations to practice, but it's definitely worth the effort. I hope that helps. Keep going!

  Another major difference between beavers and muskrats is that beavers constitute the family Castoridae whereas muskrats are members of the hamster family, surprisingly, beavers are members of the suborder Sciuromorpha (Squirrel-Like Rodents), whereas members of the hamster family such as hamsters, lemmings, muskrats, and voles are part of the suborder Myomorpha (Mouse-Like Rodents).

  Wow; I noticed one of our neighborhood crows flying with a long piece of something that looked like dried grass. They are in the big pine outside of our bedroom window. I worry that they will drive my hubs nuts this summer with the early morning calling that they do! I love our crows. When I got my cat years ago the fox came and was messing with the cat. I was vigilant but who knew when the fox was coming by. Turns out the crows know and they would chase over him.her making that aggressive caw sound. I would run out and chase fox away so kitty cat was safe! I wish I could get the crows to eat from me but they are not interested. We have a ton of craw fish in our pond, here in Vermont, and I catch them and put them in the field- thinking the crows would feast but no go. Not interested. Our old neighbor would call them in the morning and feed them bread. They would flock to her! I don’t want to use bread cause. It’s really not bird food. Any thoughts on how to establish feeding, or should I just leave them alone.

  That's such a cool story about the interaction between your crows and fox! Crows love peanuts too. That's probably the easiest thing to use. In the shell is good and they'll get into them no problem. As long as you're consistent they'll make a point to come by regularly 🙂

  This call is unique to flickers, however as with all bird sounds it does take practice and listening to make sure you aren't confusing it with something else. In my experience this tends to be one of the easiest calls for beginners to learn. I hope that helps 🙂
