November Nuthatch

Of all the birds that come to our feeders, the Nuthatch is one of the toughest to catch on camera.  They are fast eaters ... Grab a quick sunflower seed, and off they go.  We first spotted this Nuthatch's mate during a blizzard in late February.  He/she has a gimpy left leg.  We didn't think it would make it through the night .. but it did .. and 9 months later, it still returns to our feeder.
