The white breasted nuthatch is a very dextrous bird. They will often turn sideways and upside down on surfaces as they hunt for food. I have watched these birds and photographed them for quite a while now and have yet to see a bird pose as perfectly as in first photo. I thought I’d try it in b/w and was quite pleased with the results.

Wow! Those are some great shots. The detail is outstanding. They are hard birds to capture, very fast. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice. Always fun to catch up with a nuthatch. Doesn’t appear to be as many down south. I may need to revisit my shots from last fall. Thanks

The nuthatch is such a cute little bird. They are like astronauts in space floating around. I love the way they go up and down the tree in every direction: upside down sideways, backwards and forward.
