***Reverse side of each Print contains the following information about each Bird Sub-Species:

2 - Father Tanager is teasing his young one to fly by holding a tasty morsel just out of reach

3 - When the Flicker?s Mate arrives, he nods and bows, and spreads his wings like a gorgeous cape with a bright yellow lining
