It's taken this young Hairy Woodpecker a couple of weeks to get the hang of this feeder (pictured above).  Actually, the feeder is meant for birds smaller than this 9 1/2" woodpecker, but big birds can get the seeds if they hang low enough on the screen, bend sideways and push their beaks into the reduced opening.   As they say, where there's a will, there's a way.

Please comment if you wish.
