Noticed a pileated woodpecker on our normal suet feeder. She looked very uncomfortable feeding without the longer tail paddle to accommodate her larger size. It was quite a treat to see her in our yard and we are hoping that the larger feeder will bring her back to eat more often. The feeder is a very nice, quality item which will last many years. Shipping was fast and item was packed well. Very happy with the price which was more reasonable than some of the other comparable items at other places.
