Feeding Time

Feeding Time
Originally uploaded by ChathamGardens

This year I have a family of White-breasted Nuthatches nesting in one of my birdhouses. The house they chose was built to resemble a church and as far as I know this is the first time it has been occupied.

I have been observing the feeding habits of the family and it is clear that one bird is always in the house while the other bird will feed and bring back food, one seed at a time, to the other. I am hoping I will see the young before too long.
