Yup. White-breasted Nuthatch. Nuthatches typically walk as easily face-down a tree as they do up.white-breasted nuthatch?
Also - watch for Red-breasted Nuthatches. As the bird lists all up & down the east coast have been reporting since ~ Sept, this is an irruption year where many more than normal numbers of these guys come south into the US. The RBN's are slightly smaller than the WBN's and even more active.
HEY! I love doing that too..but at the end I feel soo bad that i am probably contributing to making the bird loose some its self-dependence and making them DEPEND on humans.
Very tame birds there. Did you do all that hand-feeding training by yourself?
The photo of the sun shining through the trees is very nice.
That kid in the background is lying down 'cause they put seeds on his face to see if the birds would land on him.
Nice birds, but you need to forget the birds and check on that dead body in your 5th pic.
And did they?
That is awesome! So they are wild birds that will do that? Not park birds used to people and hand-feeding?
