Before
This afternoon we had a reunion with one of our best-loved garden birds. This particular Nuthatch we think came from the Nuthatch nest in a tree hole close to the Pyle Hill entrance on Greenham Common and was a very young individual the first time we saw him. Meet "Scraggle", our baby Nuthatch, although he doesn't quite live up to his name any more.We have recently put up a new peanut feeder up and much to our surprise the Woodpecker and Nuthatch have both used it within days of putting it up.
After
These 'before' and 'after' pictures show how "Scraggle" has changed and has become more like a fully fledged adult in just a few weeks!He is now more than capable of adopting the classic upside-down Nuthatch stance, this time with his head raised looking for danger.
