White-breasted Nuthatch ~ "Songbirds & Friends" ~ Watercolor blue Saltmarsh sparrows are among theThis white breasted nuthatch watercolor captures the bird that walks upside down. Nuthatches are the only songbirds that routinely descend tree trunks headfirst a skill that gives them access to insects other birds miss.
