I have all the same birds you do except for grosbeaks. And I do have a red belly woodpecker too. This spring I had a yellow rumped warbler but the it flew up mort.

You don’t have problems with starlings and house sparrows? They are pest birds and the government would like you to off them. My Gammo air shotgun is invaluable. You know those big clouds of black birds you see driving in the country? Those are starlings. If you attract one to your feeder you could have thousands the next morning.

I get a few sparrows...mostly “red starts”....the house finches and gold finches KNOW Im gonna feed em all year...so they are plentifull...and I have the same woodpeckers, cardinals, and bluebirds year to year......
I do it for the pure joy of watching them and listening to them sing...
