Description
We had a mated pair of Hairy Woodpeckers in our yard last year that raised this little male and took turns feeding him all summer. We called him Prince Hairy as he was quite demanding of his parents. We truly enjoyed watching him feed and grow and he now has become our resident winter woodpecker.

Denise,
What a lovely story. It’s great when the newborns stay around for the winter.
