BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEE AND WHITE-BREASTED NUTHATCH


When we went to Walney the other day, we had fun looking at the bird feeders behind the visitor center, and managed to get photos of a Black-capped Chickadee. The other birds proved to be more elusive.


They are non-migratory and are an all-year round visitor.

I was also very happy to see the White-breasted nuthatch.

I have only just learned how to tell a male from a female. The male has a black cap on its head whereas the female's is more gray. If you scroll down the page at this website, you can read more. 


Thanks for looking and 
Happy Wednesday!
