Frank says:

I think it is a female Red-shafted flicker. The males have the red “mustache”

Texas Bird Family says:

The undertail appears orange. I am not very familiar with flickers, but she maybe a red-shafted x yellow-shafted flicker.

Texas Bird Family says:

I just checked eBird, she is a red-shafted flicker. The yellow shafted have gray and red on their heads. https://ebird.org/species/norfli
