--Boundary_(ID_uDCB5ZSQSRFOWNdVBCM9rA) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Can anyone help with this: my memory tells me that all juvenile yellow-shafted flickers have male-like mustache stripes; is this true?; and, if so, when in the fall is it that the juvenile male-like marks disappear so that then we can use the usual criteria for male vs. female sightings? Any help with this would be appreciated -- I checked Sibley and Nat. Geogr. guides before writing this, but my Bent series of life histories, with details on molts and plumages, is at Acadia Univ. Biology. Cheers from Jim in Wolfville.
