For the Ornithologists amongst us....

My folks are curious. This morning they saw a gray/beige-ish looking bird with a red spot (possibly orange) on its head and a black oval (or my father called it a fat heart) on its chest. He said it was two or three times as big as a mockingbird, and he really wants to know what it was. He said he didn't recall ever seeing such a bird around here,

This is GA?

hm, might it be a Flicker?

*laugh*! By the time this came into my mail, Daddy had managed to find it. Thanks for being so awesome! We don't normally see many of these that I can tell, and it was making him very curious.
