Frankfurt airport nuthatches (sitelles).

I was stranded in Frankfurt for 2 days in July. Did you know this airport has ponds and hiking trails??? And wildlife, including nuthatches (lifers!)?

After a summery weekend, we got snow flurries today. The garden is waking up everywhere but things still feel odd because there are no nesting . I have decided to pull the nest today, since there is no sign of any nesting activity. Interestingly enough, a male and a female BB have showed up. There are still Redbreasted around, and a couple of are showing interest in my other nestbox.

Thank you, @NevadaWolf, for sharing your beautiful of this white-breasted !

I have been since early childhood, and your photos made me realize that most of my memories, notes, and sketches of are if these diminutive descending the barks of trees.

My omission of taking photographs is intentional. I gave up trying in the early 1970s with a Pentax 35mm (film, manual settings) camera, although any training was absent.

Cordially,

David

When nothing much is going on, there’s still some activity apart from the MoDos. There’s two kinds of - the very human-friendly teensy Redbreasted and the more shy but equally diligent Whitebreasted. You can tell male and females apart by the color of the broad center stripe on their head. Males have a jet-black one, females more grey.

Happy ! I hope you all got to watch some of our wonderful feathered friends today and got entertained by their antics. It has been another quiet day in my yard and I wonder if the , of which there is a good little number, are happy they get to collect and cache so much stuff without any competition. The Redbreasted are one of my favorites. Tame, vocal & aborbable.

One of the only things that got me through the first six months of , when I was spending as many as eight hours a day pumping milk because of how painful it was was from our sunroom. I would be up at 4:30am or 5:00am watching and tracking the and and and . I was in terrible pain but these happy birds at our feeders were always exciting. Today, I saw my first and want to cry.

Beautiful, crisp, clear solstice afternoon in Central Park. The Pinetum was full of and we saw both kinds. Not that we got any great photos, but that was somewhat besides the point.

We have red-breasted nuthatches here in Oregon, too. Good to see that people in the UK also get to enjoy this cool bird.

I love their little beep calls.

Redbreasted are one of my favorite fall visitors. They are constantly busy, have practically no fear of humans and make the funniest little sounds. They are so fast that it can be hard to tell if you have a male or a female in front of you. These photos show their difference. The male has a jetblack “hat” while the female sports a grayish top. (Top two are male & female, bottom female & male)
