What a thrill I had this morning as I was working (slowly) in my garden, pulling up weeds. I looked up and was I ever surprised to see a Northern Flicker perched on the fence. I watched for a while – he or she hopped down and pecked around on the ground for a good while and then flew back up to perch on the fence. I turned away and thought about what a great sight – suddenly WHOOSH the Northern Flicker flew right past my ear – I flinched – and ducked!!
Earlier I was very happy to see a. Stellar Jay and of course numerous finches and even humming birds.

Well that looks like some sort of parrot. If not native where you are, an escapee? Will need shelter in Winter?
