Hi, I seem to have a very late winter resident at my feeder - a red breasted nuthatch! It was here on April 19, April 23,24,25 and today April 30. If I could access my late husbands 30+ years of records on our lot and neighborhood I could at least find if this is unusual for this area. I have the hard copy of the data, but also have a few other things to do. So - some of you out there with deep data banks- is this unusual? Just a vagrant - or an unwilling first year to make the jump? Thanks, SLLG ********************************************************* Sandra L. L.
