The Perfect Seed




A White-Breasted Nuthatch seems to have found the perfect sunflower seed and is proudly showing it off.

Moments later a Nuthatch posed on a branch overhanging the sunflower head providing the image I used in my new blog header.

Coy...Love the nutty photo. They are so quick, it's hard to get them and aren't they picky about their seeds too..

The new banner is really great. In the world of bloggers, you are definitely among its finest photographers. You post some real show stoppers that are always worth an extended look.

Really great shot! I'm never lucky enough to get that close.

Great shot. It looks as if it;s balancing the seed on its bill, silly as that idea is.

Love the balancing act, or so it looks. Great detailed shot.
I think these are like the little birds I have seen flitting around in my Manzanita tree. Good work.
