We have lots of downy and hairy woodpeckers in the backyard. The hairy woodpeckers love the peanuts and will scare off most others and stake the feeder as their own. Today, I watched a male & female vie for the feeder (they don't like to share) and the female ended up flying off. Less than a minute later she was back and they went around and around the feeder trying to scare the other off. I had plenty of time to grab the camera and get a few shots.

I love my Hairy Woodpeckers! I just wish they weren't so shy and hung around more often.
Fun Pictures, Marsha.
This is a great way to show us your Hairy Woodpeckers ~~~
Those are fun pictures espcially in that poster format.
Love the montage Marsha! And I love the little Downy's too. :c)
I've never seen so many woodpeckers on feeders at one time!
