EVEN MY LITTLE WOODPECKERS LIKE THE HUMMIES FOOD. EVEN ORIOLES GET ON THIS LITTLE FEEDER EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A LARGER ONE FOR THEM. SO FUN TO WATCH THEM ALL AND NOW EVEN THE HUMMIES FIGHTING OFF THE BEES
That's a wonderful Bird Feeder & to see a woodpecker there is so unusual to see,for me ,it's a wonderful Photo,, out here I've never seen that,only our Hummingbirds ,terrific Camera Work
Artist Reply: SO MANY THANKS MY FRIEND. ALSO EARLIER HAD ORIOLES ON THETR TOO EVEN THOUGH I HAD A LARGE ORIOLE FEEDER RIGHT NEXT TO THE HUMMY FEEDER. MAKES FOR GREAT INTERTAINMENT
Nice captyres Joanie, we used to have a greater spotted woodpecker on our bird feeder in winter, but since hoses were built on the farmland it has gone away !
Artist Reply: THANKS SO MUCH GEOFF. I'VE HAD EVEN A BLUE JAY ON THAT HUMMY FEEDER. YESTERDAY A PYLIATED ON THE TREE AGAIN. DIDN'T TAKE PICTURES THIS TIME AS I'VE GOTTEN SUCH GOOD ONES BEFORE
nice pictures Joanie. the hummingbird here has only stopped a handful of times and no other birds visit that feeder either. Plenty of bees though
Artist Reply: THANK YOU LARRY. I KEEP MY HUMMY FEEDERS UP TILL THE FIRST PART OF OCTOBER. THEY ARE STILL COMING FROM THE NORTH GOING SOUTH AND NEED ALL THE FOOD THEY CAN GET. SOMETIMES YOU DON'T SEE THEM BUT THEY ARE THERE.
Is that the female of that species of woodpecker Joanie beaautiful picture
Artist Reply: THANK YOU SO MUCH RAY. I DO BELIEVE IT IS A FEMALE DOWNY WOODPECKER. IF IT HAD A SMALL RED ON THE BACK OF ITS HEAD IT WOULD BE A MALE BUT I DID NOT SEE ANY RED.
The beak of a woodpecker is not as long as that of a hummingbird. Hence your feeder must be quite full.
Artist Reply: THANK YOU TAK-SEK. YES, I DON'T KNOW HOW THE WOODPECKERS AND ORIOLES EVEN GET ANYTHING WITH THEIR BIG BEEKS IN THOSE SMALL HOLES BUT THEY SEEM TO FIND A WAY.

It looks like you have Hummingbird juice thieves, (or imposters) as well Joanie, LOL!
