[cobirds] Woodpecker on our hummingbird feeder (Jefferson)

We seldom see woodpeckers in our yard let alone on our hummingbird feeder! I was thinking, "What is this bird thinking?" then I realized that woodpeckers have long tongues and could lap up the sugar water that way.  My first impression was "Hairy" but did not get the binocs on the backlighted bird and now wonder if it was a sapsucker. Anyone else seen the like?
