Woodpeckers or Bird Book Chapter 11

Does anyone know why the hairy and downy woodpeckers look the same? or maybe they are the same bird with 2 different names?

We keep a photo of the bird in a word document right now along with the date we read their chapter and any fitting poems and I noticed the 2 birds look very similar and DS said one just appears to be fatter than the other.
