The White-breasted Nuthatch is a jovial little bird. The industrious nuthatch uses its sharp bill to “hatch” seed out of nuts, and pry insects and seeds from branches every which way.

Red-breasted Nuthatch
Bouncing and scuttling up tree trunks, the Red-breasted Nuthatch might closely resemble the related White-breasted Nuthatch, but the Red-breasted is much smaller and contains its namesake red breast along with a bold black eyeline which the White-breasted lacks.
