Like other members of the woodpecker family, the northern flicker is known for its loud drumming and a rolling call. But if you're hoping to spy one in the wild, you may want to look down as this bird spends a lot of time foraging for insects (especially ants). Engraved in outstanding detail on the coin, this migratory species is depicted at home in Canada's forests, often where flowering trilliums evokethe colours of spring!
