Flickr announcement, FWIW: http://code.flickr.net/2014/02/24/new-ssl-endpoints-for-the-flickr-api/

So that this issue is easy to find in Google, the watchdog entry is: Could not connect to flickr, HTTP error 403

sillygwailo's patch resolves the issue. Such a simple patch, confident changing status to Reviewed and tested.
