   We had an interesting visitor come by! A Hairy Woodpecker decided to check out the Hummingbird feeders.

This one is a bit difficult to identify. Both the Hairy and Downy woodpeckers look alike (https://www.audubon.org/field-guide/bird/hairy-woodpecker), but this one is definitely the hairy woodpecker, its beak is almost as long as its head https://www.audubon.org/news/how-tell-hairy-woodpecker-downy-woodpecker.

Oh! He didn’t go far, just to the other tube feeder.
