FYI: Can't remember who's studying Red-breasted Nuthatches, but he reads this forum. Haven't seen any through summer or currently. As I reported before, a pair spent all Spring and early summer here in Fremont, Ohio and MAY have nested in my neighbor's backyard, which is a dense stand of tall pines. Will notify if any show up. Also, my Blog devoted to changing your yard into a wildlife-friendly one has "TODAY'S HEADLINES- WINTER BIRDS IN OHIO. UPDATED DAILY!". I'll run this for a week and then change the theme. Any birding theme suggestions? Visit it at http://wildlifefriendlylawn.blogspot.com/ and scroll down until you find it.
