Just thinking about the colour difference between my shot and CTs could be ones a male and the other female. :bonk:

Definitely is a nuthatch... you and CT are lucky fellas.

Mind you, I'm never still long enough to see them anyway!!!

 

[CT]

Yep - tis a Nuthatch - good capture! I don't think there's any reliable way to tell males from females, short of shaking 'em to see if they rattle.

Nice capture. I don' think there is much difference between M & F in this species.
Beat me to it CT . Just been having a look in the manual and it says the M has more intense red-brown colour on flanks

good shot of the aforementioned nuthatch
