Noticed a bit of hyper-activity by two adult RBNUs at my feeder this afternoon and after taking a closer look, I found that they were feeding four fledglings in the lilac in the side yard. I eased under the canopy and had a great shoot, mostly from about 6' away. They're out there right now, resting! ;)

Great shots. I love nuthatches. I used to stock one bird feeder with mixed seed. The nuthatches preferred broken peanuts. If they pulled out a seed they did not like, like a sunflower seed, they would flip it aside like a Frisbee. Seeds they did like they would imbed it into a deep crack in the bark of my Doug firs.
