Great news for all bird enthusiasts! Wild Republic has entered into a partnership with the National Audubon Society to create a line of realistic looking plush beanbag state birds. This partnership also includes The Cornell Lab of Ornithology, who has provided the authentic sounds for each bird to further add to the realism of these plush toys.

This Northern Flicker's call was recorded May 5, 1952 in Ithica, New York, U.S.A and was song to defend a territory and attract a mate.

Also known as the Yellow-shafted Flicker and the Yellowhammer, this North American woodpecker is the state bird of Alabama. They are found in wooded and suburban areas across much of the United States, and make their nests in hollow trees, buildings or nest boxes. Flickers are often found seeking insects (especially ants) on the ground in backyards and farm fields.
