I took those photographs through my house window this past week, so they aren't the best quality.

After a brief skirmish, the female Baltimore Oriole and the male and female Red-bellied Woodpeckers decided to coexist peacefully while eating, although with some wariness. All of the birds flee when Blue Jays show up.

Ohhh, I´ve never seen a Woodpecker but in a comic! Nice! Cute.
And they show us how to live. Together.

I'm impressed by how good your photos are :) We get this little woodpecker, too, but only at the suet. We got some young ones this year :)
