Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

Sometimes you just have to take whatever space you can find! I shot these Pygmy Nuthatches over the holidays.

I love seeing them climb down trees head first. First time I saw this I was like "wait a second there HEAD FIRST?!" I knew about short-toed treecreepers abilities as very good climbers but European nuthatches are next level.

It's weird isn't it? They're cool though.
