Sometimes size matters most, sometimes attitude! The Blue Jay is a larger bird in practically every dimension, but woodpeckers often punch above their size class and this female Hairy Woodpecker successfully challenges the Blue Jay for center stage.

If you’ve ever wondered whether who’s more dominant: a Blue Jay (~85g) or a Hairy Woodpecker (~65g), observe this impressive interaction from our #OntarioFeeders
