We have two downy woodpeckers sucking up large portions of the contents in our hummingbird feeders. I can't imagine that the sugar water is good for the woodpeckers....which is bad enough.... but these guys are drinking SUPERSIZE amounts. Any suggestions for how I can keep the downies away but still support the hummers?
