Eurasian Nuthatch

Sitta europaea

Least Concern

The Eurasian Nuthatch is a compact blue-gray bird that can climb down tree trunks headfirst. It wedges nuts into bark cracks and hammers them open, and it plasters mud around its nest hole to shrink the entrance.

Males and females of this species look different. The card art shows the male.
