Our first Nuthatch – a Brown Headed.

1:00 AM – Traffic on the TrailCam. When it’s working, we get some decent videos:
Another video of the recent Brown Headed Cowbird visit. Not an enormous wave of birds like a few years ago.
1:00 AM – A small Downy Woodpecker:
Busy day at the feeder:
1:00 AM – Merry Christmas! Here’s a variety of videos for your Christmas morning:
1:00 AM – Brief video of a Chickadee on the cylinder feeder.
More Sparrow and Titmouse antics, this time with a Chickadee making an appearance.
Lots of action on the Nugget Feeder:
1:00 AM – Cylinder birds – first a Chickadee, followed by a Downy Woodpecker.
Then an infrequent visitor, the Brown Headed Nuthatch.
1:00 AM – Here’s a new bird – the Red Breasted Nuthatch. That makes three kinds: The Red Breasted, the White Breasted and the Brown Headed. This variety visits in the winter, but only the non-breeding kind (according to Cornell Labs).
Here’s the Brown Headed version. You can see the similarities in the way they attack the cylinder.
1:00 AM – Here we have three birds at the Mealworm Feeder, starting with a Eastern Phoebe, then a Cardinal and finally a rarely seen Brown Headed Nuthatch.
Downy Woodpeckers are an unusual sight at this feeder. They’re always welcome, of course.
1:00 AM – A Brown-headed Nuthatch showed up on the hanging feeder yesterday. We haven’t seen one in many months. In fact, we haven’t seen its cousin, the White-breast Nuthatch for a while, and they used to be quite common.
Here’s a squirrel trying to get something out of the hanging feeder, and finding out why they call it the Squirrel Buster. It was possibly two different squirrels, or just one very persistent one.
1:00 AM – Part two of the ‘Flock of Sparrows’ video. In this one the Sparrows share with a White Breasted Nuthatch and Purple Finch.
Red-bellied Woodpecker on the platform feeder. There’s a special appearance by a Brown Headed Nuthatch at the end of the clip.
