Learn more about what we call the "upside down" bird.
"A common feeder bird with clean black, gray, and white markings, White-breasted Nuthatches are active, agile little birds with an appetite for insects and large, meaty seeds. They get their common name from their habit of jamming large nuts and acorns into tree bark, then whacking them with their sharp bill to “hatch” out the seed from the inside. White-breasted Nuthatches may be small but their voices are loud, and often their insistent nasal yammering will lead you right to them"
I have one, maybe two, that come to my feeders. This year was the first year they have been here and I was thrilled to see them. I thought they had dirty little butts, only it's the color of the feathers that make them look that way. I love to watch them hang upside down on the limbs and the feeders and how fast they are!! Very interesting details about them and love the POV on this one!! FAV!
