The other nuthatch…

Red-breasted Nuthatch: Kennebunk, Maine, USA — I enjoy all the nuthatches that come to our feeding stations. The White-breasted are there many times a day, all day, but, while they may come at least once everyday, I only see the Red-breasted once a week or so…sometimes not at all for many weeks. If I spend more time in the kitchen overlooking the feeders, or in my photo blind when it is set up, I would probably see them more, but as it is, every sighting is a real treat! This one popped up on the deck when I was taking photos of bluebirds the other day. It was there for maybe a moment, and then I did not see it again, but I got a few photos as it flitted through. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Polarr and Apple Photos. ISO 500 @ f4 @ 1/500th.
