Hairy woodpeckers are not internal; they are a species of bird found throughout North America. They are known for their distinctive black and white plumage and their characteristic drumming on trees. Like other woodpeckers, they inhabit forests and wooded areas, where they forage for insects and larvae in tree bark.
Downy and Hairy Woodpeckers live in the same habitat as Pileated Woodpecker.
My first guess is the hairy Woodpecker of 9". It iswhite in the front, while black and white speckled on the back with a red dot on the back of the head. There is also the 6" Downy Woodpecker. It is basically the same as the last one only smaller. There are are various other woodpeckers that may fit your description depending on the colors and size.
They are very social, and are friendly, they will usually let you walk right up to them to a point, but if you feed them like I do, eventually they will come right to you. I have suet feeders up at my home, and when I am refilling them the hairy woodpeckers will land right on the suet holders as I am carrying them out to place in the tree and begin eating.
