[EBB Sightings] "Yellow-shafted" intergrade Coyote Hills

All,

I forgot to mention that during our class field trip to Coyote Hills  
we also saw an apparent "yellow-shafted" intergrade northern Flicker  
in the willow by the entrance kisok. The bird possessed brilliant  
yellow vanes on the ventral side of tail and wings, a fairly well- 
defined red nuchal patch, but also some faint  red-flecking on the  
malar. The exact color of face/crown was hard to judge, but shots  
photos were taken.
