We get Flickers here all the time. They like to dominate the suet. I think that sometimes the hang on the feeder, eat, hang some more, poop to make room for more suet then start eating again! Darned piglets! They will also sit out of sight in the trees and cuss me out with their insistent cry when the suet feeder needs filling. I agree they can be quite wary. I can stick my head out the sliding glass door to watch but step out on the deck and they are gone leaving the Chickadees, Juncos, Finches etc. wondering why they left. Around here they are called either Red-shafted Flickers or just Northern Flickers. What variety do you have there?

Pretty sure its a Northern. I looked quickly online at pics.

Normally seen in the warm weather eating ants. Cant recall if I've seen one at the seed either.
