| Nuthatch visiting garden
For the last couple of weeks, we've had a nuthatch feeding on sunflower hearts. No photo yet, sorry. It is a much prettier bird than I'd imagined. It took a few sightings before I saw him run down the tree. I was amazing to watch.
Today, he was getting a bit more confident and come to a feeder station nearer to the house. He was just about to sample the fat cake, when the starlings descended.
I'd like to put out some whole peanuts for him but don't know where they could go so that the pigeons and squirrels don't scoff them all. |
