I was recently watching an oriole feeder in Green Bay Wisconsin when a red bellied woodpecker landed and started
drinking. It was quite humorous to see this large bird barley able to cling to the small perch, but it found a way to
get a drink.

Subject: [mou] Downy woodpecker at my hummingbird feeder
I situated a hummingbird feeder over an old flat topped bird feeder, and sure enough, orioles started landing on the
flat top and drinking out of the hummingbird feeder. Recently, a female downy woodpecker, after feeding at the peanut
feeder, hops over to the flat top roof of the old feeder and drinks out of the hummingbird feeder. Has anyone else ever
seen this?
