Wood peckers!!!!

THANK YOU RAVEN!!!!!!!

So far I've not had one wood pecker attack the house!!! By this time last year I had to refill the paintball gun with air and buy more paintballs.

Raven told me to place suet all around my house, so I did. I've seen all kinds of birds but the number one bird is the woodpecker, white and black with a red head.

Thanks again Raven!!!

ummm.... it is woodpeckers (one word) . I am interested that the suit worked. It attracts woodpeckers. They wreck houses when they drum on them as part of mating ritual. I woulda thought you wouldn't want to attract them. I had suet out and they came. My barn payed the price. Stopped the suet and they haven't hit the barn since. Who knows...

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

the drumming they do is to define their territory
the louder the better....

white and black WP's are the greater downy

once you place suet into the scenario
you have changed the situation from
this is a fine place to call a mate from
to a come one, come all wood PECKERS over here
food is here....


and so, then the DRUMMER looses his SPOT
it's a SPOT BURN lol
Glad to be of service MIKE
