White-breasted Nuthatch
(Sitta Carolinensis)

Male (above on the left)   -   Female (above on the right)

The widespread White-breasted Nuthatch species is almost always seen in male-female pairs, year-around.  The male has a black top to its head, while the female has a gray top to her head.   Otherwise they are almost indistinguishable.   Both sexes are the same size.   They are a joy to see at winter seed and suet feeders.

Please comment if you wish.
