I could find only two pictures of this Campo Flicker (Colaptes campestris) here in POTN, so I thought I could share this.

Taken some four years ago on a cattle ranch near Buenos Aires, Argentina, with 20D and S70-200, quite a heavy crop.

This was a lucky coincidence. I was wandering around in the small forest plot middle of the cattle fields. I was pleased to get this line-of-sight through the dense branches. :)
