Each winter I hope we have some red-breasted nuthatches, but, despite the cold,
I haven't gotten any - not for the CBC, and nothing all winter so far. Until
today!
I wrapped up an hour walk this morning around 8:45am in Loftridge Park
(Alexandria, VA) and just as I arrived close to home, I heard the exciting
high-pitched "yank" of a red-breasted nuthatch. I was able to get it in the
binocs too. I lovely first find of this species for this winter.
