Bird puns

People hate my puns, I know, 
and so on the internet they shall go.
to see these puns you might
have intentionally visited a pun filled site
The American Museum's collection of birds
have provided woodpecker puns, abundant, absurd.  

The woodpecker, a two part name; phallic each.
Dryobates one resorts to when lube's far from reach.
The downy woodpecker is Picoides pubescens 
Though calling the hairy woodpecker, one could easily defend

And though this verse could get much sicker
One gets no Melanerpes when one Dryobates,
But do beware the Flicker
