Participant Photo: Nuthatch Mating Ritual
We noticed one nuthatch first. It was flitting from tree to tree. Then it went to the tree where another nuthatch was waiting. That nuthatch offered the visitor a snack. Nuthatches hide food in the tree bark and hen go back for it when needed. It is Spring and the mates share their food. Hormone driven charity.
