Woodpeckers at the hummingbird feeder
Hello everyone,
This is the 2nd year now that I have Downy woodpeckers and a red-bellied woodpecker that come and get a few sips out of my hummingbird feeder. Has anyone else seen this? I guess they have a sweet tooth!

1. we saw 6 types of woodpeckers (I think it was 6) at the Earth Day fair today!

It was a lovely day for a bird walk. ( I have no idea about them visiting hummer feeders.)

2. I just don't know either about hummingbird feeders
I was hoping that someone else had seen this. I love to watch woodpeckers and I'm glad you got to see 6!

4. I've never seen woodpeckers at our hummingbird feeder but
in California, the orioles used to stop by for a drink :-).
