Thanks Dan! They were so entertaining. I have a second suet below that one, but she decided to wait instead!

Very cool to capture them together like that!
Thanks Eric! Usually the Hairys blast in and scare away the Downys, and everyone else too!
Thanks Bob..they sure make it easy when they come in together!

Nice shots Sandy. Nice story and cute little Downy. The Hairy is bigger and has a longer beak, I love it when I see them both in our suet cakes.
Thanks Peter! Thanks to this group, I learned how to tell them apart quite a while ago!

Super shots, Sandy. Really liking #1-composition, the branches, size comparison, lot going for it.
Thanks Rog! Our snow comes and goes on a daily basis!
As a side note, my photo of a Pine Siskin got picked up by EXPLORE on Flickr! Love when that happens!
I will share the thumbnail because the photo is already posted in another spot here in the bird forum.
