Yes it does have barring on the head; a flicker is an "actual bird". How he chooses to depict it is his pictures is a choice of expressionism. I have been killing birds for 49 years in ME, NH, VT, NY, DE, MD, VA, ND, SD, WA, MT, KS, OH, IO, TX, Scotland and Argentina. Clappers and flickers do exist, just not like he depicted them. So there!
