Great Backyard Bird Count: The Count is Over. We won! Columbia #1 in KY!

Birds of KY: Whitebreasted Nuthatch. The white-breasted nuthatch (sitta carolinesus) is easily recognized by its distinctive markings, and by its habit of climbing headfirst down the trunks of trees. You can see in this picture his huge rear claws, which aid in those feats of climbing agility. Photo February 6, 2007, by Pen.
