White-breasted Nuthatch - A Candidate for Best Dressed

I've always thought that the White-breasted Nuthatch looked a lot like a bird wearing a tuxedo; and as such are one of my favorites.

Wow, Steve, TACK SHARP! (except maybe the 1/60th) Awesome shooting here, Buddy. Clever idea w/ the peanut feeder idea, too.

^^What Rog said!^^ My Nuthatches have been very active today too, both reds and whites!

You have all the required poses my friend, nicely done too. Nice clarity on all, 3&4 especially, another grand set!

Great stuff Steve, they do have a clean sharpness to them,

Wow these are absolutely fabulous! What a superb set! I love them all.

#3 & #7 are really nice exposure & composition that show the subject in its environment.

Well done Steve.

Nice captures of a very handsome bird indeed.

Those angles showing the feather patterns on the wings are beautiful.

Thanks for sharing.

Excellent shots Steve. I want 1d4.

Very kind of you my good Sir! You'll see more of the peanut feeder at a later date

Thank you so kindly Sandy! I'd gladly trade you 1 or 2 whites for 1 of your reds

Much appreciated Bret! I chuckled at the "required poses" part as I just shot what they gave me.

That they do Jeff and I appreciate the comment very much. Not many others as tidy as these birds.

You're very kind Doug and it's appreciated very much. I wish I hadn't had to leave the feeder pole in #3 though.
