RED-BREASTED NUTHATCH
(Sitta canadensis)
A Red-breasted Nuthatch is seen above at a winter seed feeder in my backyard, where it also visits the suet feeder. Below another Red-breasted Nuthatch is seen at a Hummingbird nectar feeder in the summertime. It is also well known for gleaning small insects from branches and outer twigs. When you are a small as this wee bird is, you have to take whatever you can get, when and wherever you find it. It is definitely omnivorous.
Please comment if you wish.
