Hairy Woodpecker

The larger of two look alikes, the Hairy Woodpecker is a small but
powerful bird that forages along trunks and main branches of large
trees. It wields a much longer bill than the Downy Woodpecker's almost
thornlike bill. Hairy Woodpeckers have a somewhat soldierly look, with
their erect, straight-backed posture on tree trunks and their cleanly
striped heads. Look for them at backyard suet or sunflower feeders, and
listen for them whinnying from woodlots, parks, and forests.

You will see our own personal experience
with a California Acorn Woodpecker.
These woodpeckers were my favorite
as they were so communal with each
other and "talked" back and forth.
Have a lovely day!

I love these guys. Mostly we get downies, but every once in a while a hairy. They are so handsome!

Woodpeckers are amazing, but we are not entertained when we are trying to sleep and they peck on the woodburning stove pipe to make the bugs run out from under the flashing. Sounds like a machine gun going off on the roof above us!
ReplyDeleteWho looked at that bird and thought 'I'm gonna name this hairy woodpecker'? :D Hairy?
ReplyDeleteI love woodpeckers. I once watched one trying to peck an aluminum street sign...

I hear woodpeckers now and again in my cedar trees. Hopefully just to attract a mate or let other woodpeckers know "this is my tree!" I don't want to think they found insects in the bark!
ReplyDeleteI love to hear them rat-a-tatting in the trees!

I get both of these critters and other woodpeckers as well at the suet cage. I love listening to their calls -- but I don't like them rat-ta-tat-tatting on my wood siding!
