White-breasted Nuthatch.
Teens this morning. Nearly cloudless. A little breeze. The photoperiod is lengthening noticeably.
Bunch of desk work, then a quick afternoon hike with dog. No birds yesterday, but quite a few species today—including a vocal pair of Hairy Woodpeckers. But the most photogenic bird was a nuthatch in the back yard.
