Re: Post shots you took today!
No, it's a Coal Tit, which is much smaller than a Nuthatch.Originally posted by Ian View Post
This is a Nuthatch. They're usually quite easy to distinguish because of the way they move, kinda 'slinky' and often seen perched upside dpwn on a feeder.
They're larger than any of the Tit family, a sort of greyish blue with an orangey/pinkish chest. unmistakeable once you've seen you first one (which can resemble an eel-like creature slithering down and around a peanut feeder or branch).

No problem.Originally posted by escallonia View Post
Yours is a very good picture of the Coal Tit. They're fast movers, usually stop to grab a seed then off again in less than a heartbeat, so you did very well with that picture.

Re: Post shots you took today!
Now I have looked at it again it does look like a coal-tit, which occasionally visit our feeder, but I have never seen a nuthatch apart from in photos

Decided to attempt to correct this post by using the "url"Originally posted by Ray Shotter View PostThis shrub has a very long name viz:
Acer Palmatum Dissectum Atropurpureum
Ray.
PS Couldn't copy the "url" when right clicking so copied the photo instead. Seems to work if you click on the thumbnail.

Re: Post shots you took today!
It's a beautiful Acer, we have one too. Ours is at least 31 years old and it was here when we moved into the house (31 years ago). It's very slow growing.Originally posted by Ray Shotter View Post
Foxes like to hide under and one of them poked it's head out from under it only yesterday afternoon. They blend in well with the colour of the leaves.
