Great Lakes region, USA. April 2026.

I’m so happy to have finally taken decent photos of one. He’s quite the specimen too. He knows he’s the prettiest bird at the feeder. Even if he’s a messy eater.

    I watched this little guy for about 20 minutes and he never once did the upside down thing. Very strange indeed for a nuthatch. I think he was more curious about the bird feeder and all the chickadees, white-throated, sparrows, white-crowned sparrows, tree sparrows, dark-eyed juncos, and squirrels mobbing the feeder. Someone had dumped like 4lbs of seed and the animals were going nuts over it.
