Red-Breasted Nuthatch
Sitta canadensis
One of the few species to walk face-first down tree trunks, this little bird also has a distinct black stripe through its eye.
Not as common as the white-breasted nuthatch, but similar in sound and habits, this smaller bird species can delight those who see it — like catching a glimpse of a feathered treasure.

Like its larger relative the white-breasted nuthatch, the red-breasted nuthatch has a pointy bill for probing under tree bark, as it meanders face-first down trunks and spirals around branches.  Unlike the more common and wider spread white-breasted, this species has a distinct black eye stripe and rufous red underparts.
