      We had a thirsty wood pecker on he hummingbird feeder tonight. First time I’ve ever seen anything like this.

      And you may ask yourself, "Where does that highway go to?"

        @highlander I always used to laugh at the woodpeckers that would hang on our sunflower feeders to eat that. Definitely never seen one on a hummingbird feeder.

          Hairy woodpecker, methinks.

            @highlander That's hilarious! We had the same thing happen 5 minutes ago!

            We had two all winter that were feeding off some suet we put out for the birds. Yours looks like a Spotted Woodpecker, ours are smaller little guys - Downy Woodpeckers 🙂

            They were taking sips from our hummingbird feeder last year too! (Pic from last year)

                @highlander bet the sugar is like a 5 hour energy shot for them to get pecking longer, harder, faster

                60% of the time, it works every time!
