Subject: [MDBirding] Red-breasted Nuthatches in yard yesterday


Hi all,

We had just gotten home from Baltimore (coming off a cruise) and were unloading the car when we noticed a little mixed flock passing through the pines and locusts in our yard. No bins at hand, but among the several warblers and chickadees were two R-B Nuthatches. They called a number of times. By the time binoculars were unloaded the flock had moved on. They paid no attention to the bird feeders...
