Citizen Science: Project FeederWatch -- Week #15 Report 2021-2022 Season
This week's featured birds are a White-breasted Nuthatch and Red-winged Blackbird.
I typically watch and count birds on Saturday and Sunday. This is my report for 19-20 February 2022.
Bird Watching Notes
White-breasted Nuthatch (Sitta carolinensis, ORDER: Passeriformes, FAMILY: Sittidae)
This is often repeated everyday; Get a nut, take it to the tree, put it in a tree knott, and eat!

Beautiful bird pic's with report thanks mike sir for sharing that.
Hi @etcmike. The woodpecker is always in the area, don't those birds migrate.
Some woodpeckers stay in the area all year and a few do seem to migrate to warmer locations.
Steem on!
Mike
