You might have seen a Hairy Woodpecker. They're about halfway between Downys and Pileateds in size, but look exactly like Downys in all other aspects.

Woodpeckers in general are just nice. We've also got some red-bellieds, and a Northern Flicker or two, which I believe are adjacent to woodpeckers, but ours just seem to enjoy throwing mulch halfway across the yard as a daily activity.

We used to see lots of hairy woodpeckers in my area, but the council cut down the woods, so now we just see lots of hairy peckers.
