We had an interesting situation here today. We noticed 2 juvie red-bellied Woodpeckers out on the silver maple along with an adult male. The thing is the male wouldn't/wasn't feeding either of the juvies and in fact kept trying to chase them off. They even followed the adult over to the elm tree but again got chased away. Later today I did see a male feeding a juvie. Of course, we really have no idea how many different woodpeckers we have coming to the feeders. I can only be sure that we do have at least 2 different females that come.
