The bird visits the feeder daily. I think it is a female downy woodpecker, but if you look the beak is very long, the body is shorter and more plump than normal, and the feet are large. I have sent this pic. into a website that will help ID birds, so I'm curious if I will hear back. I wonder if it's some kind of deformity, and is a actually a Downy?

I have already heard back from the bird ID site, they also think it is a female Downy, but has a malformed bill, not typical.

I appreciate your comments, thank you.
