A little behind the times... This past Tuesday I was home from work during the day due to illness. If I hadn't been I would have missed out on seeing a pair of white-breasted nuthatches being challenged to keep the chow coming by 7 fledglings. The whole group was fluttering around my backyard. A few of the young 'uns huddled together in the ash tree where they hung out for a while. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
