Two woodpeckers walk into a bar...
You've probably not heard the joke about the two woodpeckers who walked into a bar. (As far as we know there is no such joke.)
But, now you can say that you've watched the photos of two hairy woodpeckers who landed on the Icon's suet bird feeder moments apart.
There's no such thing as sharing in this case. It was sort of territorial where winner takes all. The photos tell the story best.
Simply scroll down to watch. This episode occurs daily at the same suet bar. A couple squirrels, a sparrow and nuthatch tried mediate, but don't mess with hairy woodpeckers.
