Picoides pubescens (Downy Woodpecker), Carduelis pinus (Pine Siskin)

From what my book says, this is classic Pine Siskin behaviour - trying to convince a larger bird to leave the food source so it can have it all to itself. This shot also shows prime Pine Siskin features - forked tail and yellow bar on the wing.
