Title: First Red-breasted Nuthatch
Post by: Cody on November 13, 2010, 08:49:43 PM

I saw my first Red-breasted Nuthatch today at Sherwood Hills Park in Grimsby. I managed to see it briefly fly away to another tree. Interesting call.

Congrats to you!  

I love those little guys and have been fortunate to have a pair in the yard over the winter months the past 2 years.  I seldom see them in the wild.

Yep, 3 weeks ago (or so).  I'd like to think it is the same pair.

Cool.   8)

Cody and Rob ... there are lots of RBN's up here in Meadowvale.  I see and hear them constantly around local lakes and parks.
