What does a red-breasted Nuthatch sound like?
Short and round, the tiny red-breasted Nuthatch attracts notice with its high energy level and the black and white striping on its head. Look for it this little active bird at your bird feeder, or listen for a “yank-yank” call, similar to the sound of a small tin horn honking. This bird is known to collect resin from trees and plaster it in front of its nest as a way to ward off predators.
