Red-breasted Nuthatch


The colder temperatures lately have increased the activity at some of our feeders, and yesterday as light snow fell I was happy to see this red-breasted nuthatch make a number of visits to the peanut and sunflower seed feeders. I haven't seen one too often this winter. So cute.

I wrote three posts about nuthatches (red-breasted and white-breasted) at around this time last year: January 2, January 18, and January 23.

Cool! We don't have the Red-breasted coming to our feeders here..instead the White-breasted and the Brown-headed nuthatch. They love Zick dough!
Happy birding..Stay warm!
