White-Breasted Nuthatch: A dapper bird!
It was a bright sunny day a few weeks ago and I was walking the Chickadee Trail at the Kootenai Wildlife Refuge north of the district office. I had heard reports that there were white- breasted nuthatches in the tall pine trees north of the district office parking lot. Upon arrival I noticed a group of four white breasted birds in the top of the trees.
