Dispute #2

A big woodpecker who frequents my backyard is called the Northern Flicker. Today one of the female flickers was munching the suet for supper.




 Then one European Starling flew in, hoping to get some.




The lone supper quickly changed into a loud argument.  After a little while, the flicker completed the meal and left the suet for the starling to enjoy.

 
It's a tough world out in the backyard sometimes.  Food is limited especially during the winter months.  Everyone is waiting for the warm, plentiful season, which is just around the corner.
