Christmas Eve Woodpecker Visit

These shots are slightly out of focus. I had to react instantly when the woodpeckers perched side by side this morning in the feeder tree. I am thrilled they were together in one spot. What a wonderful Christmas gift.

These are downy woodpeckers. The male has the red blaze. The female is much smaller and has no red.
A long shot showing them together.
