    White-breasted Nuthatches may be small but their voices are loud, and often their insistent nasal yammering will lead you right to them. 3:03 Both species are often mistaken as woodpeckers, as they have short legs and shimmy up and down tree trunks, but nuthatches are more closely related to chickadees and tufted titmice, than to woodpeckers. The smartest bird species are even wise enough to transcend species barriers. Chickadees and nuthatches, for example, have been observed responding to each other's predator warning calls, in a kind of predator-alert symbiosis.

    dude red-breasted nuthatches just don't care! They're adorable! There's a mated pair by my house and regardless of where I am, they're always hanging out on or around the bird feeder I have out. They love stealing the sunflower seeds and the (I think) male chases away chickadees because the (i think) female is kinda scared of them. I was filling the feeders and one just sat on the feeding hook not even 1 foot away from me and watched me do it lol! I thought he was going to dive-bomb me. My favorite visitors.

    I like watching both the red-breasted and white-breasted nuthatches where I live in the Ottawa area. I remember one time leaning against a large pine tree while waiting to watch for a possible owl in another tree about 20 feet away. While I'm leaning against that pine tree I hear a slight scratching sound on the bark and the sound is getting closer. I figure it's maybe a squirrel on the trunk and happen to look up. I see a little white-breasted nuthatch walking vertically down the pine trunk towards me. It stopped a few feet above my head - I think it was seeing if I had some seeds. Haha, love watching them get to work and walk all angles of a tree.

    We have a pair of these right outside our window constantly running up and down the oak outside. We set suet blocks and I smear unsalted peanut butter in different spots. Between them and the downy woodpecker this tree is exploding with cached seeds. Both species seem to have a mutual respect for each other. We also have a pair of blue jays, cardinals, juncos, field sparrows, quail, and of course the ever present English sparrows whose behavior is disgusting sometimes. It's so good seeing the blue jays show up and drive off the English sparrows-why I love blue jays and their 'bully of the block' attitudes.

    Nuthatches are so fun to hear and watch. A pair of RB nuthatches nested in a box on a ponderosa pine (Marion Co. OR) and collected the sticky fluff from the emerging cone flower buds as nesting material as well as the resin to coat the entrance to the nest. I rarely see them in my yard so this nest was a special treat!

    I recently moved to a large wooded property and started feeding the birds about the end of November. Nuthatches are by far my favorite of all the birds at the feeders. I go out and offer them black oil sunflower from my hand until I get tired holding it up. No takers yet, but the nuthatches and the chickadees show some interest as they hop from branch to branch less than 10ft away. The woodpeckers love suet and so do the nuthatches, they get inside of the basket and peck at the cake.

I remember seeing a nuthatch stuff a peanut into a tree followed by some lichen for the first time (only flew a few feet from my hand to the nearest one) and totally blew me away - clever! Trying to keep enough suet out now but the woodpeckers have learned that it's pretty tasty so it's first come first served for the others. Guess they all need the extra energy to fight the cold snaps!

    Today a beautiful red-breasted nuthatches visited our bird feeder house. I didn't know anything about them , but managed to describe perfectly their look and colors to Mr. Google and here I'm - in the video results you found your channel. I watched the full video and I was pretty excited how interesting is this bird specie. In no time a recorded video with few of their quirks - 1) staying upside down on the little branch, that is mounted to the roof of the feeder house; 2) getting a lot of seeds from the feeder and flying straight into the branches of a nearby tree, to hide them obviously (back-and-forth may be 20 times) 3) they were super brave - I was recording them from 20cm distance and they didn't show any sign of disturbance or fear (the total opposite of the tits birds - who visit our feeder like a navy seals - the appear from nothing and disappear to nothing in 0 seconds). Thank you very much for the work on this video and all the useful information that you share. You just earned my subscription.

    Dear Lesley, A beautiful little nuthatch hit my window today. He's only one of two (a mated pair) in my area. I immediately ran outside and brought him in to let him rest, but as soon as I walked in, he flew out of my hands and past the door. I am so, so worried he has a concussion and won't make it. My windows have wooden crossframes and (partial) privacy laminate, so I didn't think this would ever happen. I'm making DIY acopian bird savers tonight. Please let me know if this has ever happened to you. I'm praying I'll see him at the bird feeder tomorrow. Love all your wonderful videos and appreciate all your hard work! ❤️❤️

He seems a little better/more energized this morning but taking him to a bird rescue to make sure his wing is okay first. After watching this, I’d imagine he has a mate watching for him so hoping all is good and I can release him back to the same area. Do you think his mate will wait around a day or two for them? He’s so sweet and friendly. Sadly, a big city is not a good place for them, wish they lived near you...haha I wish I lived near you too! So beautiful there 😍

    Finally got a nuthatch to my feeder in Alaska. Not every sunflower kernel is acceptable, according to him.

    I once saw a RBN standing on a thick branch about 4 feet off the ground. When he dropped the peanut he was holding, he cocked his head to get a bead on it, dove and caught it only 18-20 inches below the point where he dropped it.

    I have seen the brown creeper behave similarly to the nuthatch. Beautiful birds! 😊

    Wow, lots of facts I didn't know, and many more reasons to love them even more. I really look forward to seeing a brown-headed nuthatch again. They are around here in Florida but it's been a while since I've heard one squeak :)

    Very interesting. I’m fortunate to get quite a few Nuthatches at my feeders.

    Thanks, that was great. I mistakenly thought Brown Creepers spiralled down tree trunks.

    A nuthatch has built a nest on the outside windowsill of my bedroom window. I was surprised that she doesn't seem bothered by my presence. She has decorated around the side with lichen, and has made a thick little den of soft dried leaves.

    I need to watch my male/female Downy Woodpeckers that visit my feeders as well. I happen to have a white breasted Nuthatch couple in a pine tree across from my feeders. When I’m gardening around the feeders they don’t seem bothered by my presence either. They also make the cutest low key too. Just last week I saw the male taking some of the Alpaca hair I have for the birds to make nests - Interesting for sure.

    Wow nuthatches are even more cunning that I would have imagined! I like to consider nuthatches to be the bandits birds of the garden because of their black stripe on the head.

    I have the nut hatches. They are neat little birds. Leslie how do you get these birds to eat out of your hands? Like the blue Jay's,nut hatches? I only have chickadees that follow me around when I feed the birds in different places in the yard. I love your videos. I watch every one of them.
