White-breasted nuthatch

White-breasted nuthatch, January 28, 2021, Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada.

Sitta carolinensis
If you see a White-breasted Nuthatch making lots of quick trips to and from your feeder – too many for it to be eating them all – it may be storing the seeds for later in the winter, by wedging them into furrows in the bark of nearby trees.
