Bird Identification: CLOSED: Downy or Hairy or maybe neither?, 1 by wingwoman

Myself included. He appears to be only a little larger than the finches (if only he'd pose next to one). The Hairy at 9" would appear much larger than this. He did open his beak to make some sounds, but I couldn't tell by comparing it to the bird sounds on the Cornell site. We can see him from our dining room window, along with the new Chickadees that have shown up since we got a suet cake. We'll be getting more of those soon I imagine. He's come back to pose once more, if these photos help.
Thanks for your help.
