Mark made some good points.  I would like to add that
any bird feeding woodpecker-style by using its tail as
a brace against a feeder will experience more wear
than one that doesn't.  The feathers of woodpeckers
are adapted for that use more so than orioles.  Look
how the tail is contacting the feeder in the images.
