    That's the Buff Bellied Nuthatch. we have the blue nuthatchs here. Their backs have more of a bluish tint to them with a pure white belly.

    What a cute little bird. Thats cool that they are tame! We have similar here, and call them red breasted... we also have the larger, white breasted. It's fun to watch them come to the feeder for the treats we put out.

    A great close-up Kildale. They say we might begin to see these little birds here in Scotland if the weather keeps changing.

    It is a Red-breasted nuthatch, we don't see any others here.
