Birdwatching - Fanning the Flames - Leanne Wildermuth : Artist by Nature

Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as paint,
and the soil and sky as canvas.

Fanning the Flames

February

2009

The bird feeders are full – and within 10 minutes of filling them, a pair of nuthatches were all over my trees. I love how he’s stretching out his wing, as if to say “it’s been a long winter – I’m ready.”

Yep, me too!!

Great photo Leanne, they are such busy little birds, they are difficult to catch. The Nutchatch in the UK does seem to vary a little from yours in the US, I’ll have to try and get a photo of the ones that are spending a lot of time on the bird feeders at the moment, so we can compare them.
