Great guesses on what bird was in the tree!

The answer - Wood Duck! I've seen a male and female twice this week and both times they were in the tree waiting their turn to get to the seeds below the bird feeders.

Enjoy!

White-Breasted Nuthatch

Posted by Joan Wallner on Wednesday, April 9, 2014, In : Birds

The nuthatch is one of those birds that is so mesmerizing when you watch them "crawl" up and down a tree, practically hanging upside down while looking for bugs to eat off of the tree.

Here's a white-breasted nuthatch from Bear Lake, Minnesota, who grabbed a little bite to eat from a bird feeder and flew to a nearby branch to eat it.
