White-breasted nuthatch bird, Sitta carolinensis, perched on pine bark

Photographed at Red Top Mountain State Park, Georgia, USA. Spring 2018. White-breasted Nuthatches are active, agile little birds. They get their common name from their habit of jamming large nuts and acorns into tree bark, then whacking them with their sharp bill to “hatch” out the seed from the inside.
