This Morning Outside

What would it be to weigh so little and be so lithe that up and down were all the same to you? For a white-breasted nuthatch, tail up, head down feels just as right as the other way round.

Name that bird!

NGS Field GuideA field guide (bird book) will help you to recognize the birds that share your life.

One that we like a lot is the National Geographic Guide to Birds of North America, Fifth Edition. It covers all the birds in North America, and the illustrations are beautiful.

There's a special feeder that is really nice looking. It's the Suet Upside Down Feeder. Nuthatches and woodpeckers are fine with feeding from below, but starlings can't manage it.
