Sometimes you just have to take whatever space you can find! I shot these Pygmy Nuthatches over the holidays.

    We only have Eurasian nuthatches here, fun fact I learned recently, they’re the only British bird who can climb down a tree, every other bird has to fly to the bottom and climb up, that’s wild to me.

      Your nuthatches are just as nifty. I like their colored bellies!

      I love seeing them climb down trees head first. First time I saw this I was like “wait a second there HEAD FIRST?!” I knew about short-toed treecreepers abilities as very good climbers but European nuthatches are next level.

        It’s weird isn’t it? They’re cool though.
