Meet Lentil the Cutest Nuthatch There Ever Was

I love the sweet little chirping sounds they make, just adorable! 💖💖💖

[BrdLadee]

The walking upside down is amazing, but I think the constant chatter is what gets me. So adorable! ❤️❤️❤️

[grtchldy]

Thanks so much for this. I still remember my first experience with meeting a red breasted nut hatch. It was walking head first down a tree trunk! One of my favorite birds ever since.

Always a treat to see your latest video. Your long-term relationships with the birds in your woods let us see them and their interesting lives in such amazing detail! Thank you for highlighting these delightful little birds, and especially lovely Lentil!❤

[malcontender]

They really are expressive little talkers!

[teresasimkins]

Amazing to see Lentil again. Such a little heartbreaker Bird crush🥰

[conniejames]

These little guys are so brave. I was filling the bird bath and a nuthatch got a peanut from the bird finder not more than a yard from me. He even talked to me! I guess he was just saying hello.

We just love them Once in a while we will see a nuthatch here in Illinois in the backyard. Not very often though. Superb video Lesley. 🐦

[joseenoel]

Yank yank noise, great, finally a label! Lentil soup's the best too but veggie style of course!

[randomvielleuse]

I love these smart and beautiful birds! It was only when covid kept me and my husband home that I started feeding wild birds and really got to watch nuthatches (and lot of other birds) on a regular basis. Then I found your channel and fell even more in love with them. Thank you so much for your videos! I love learning and your own obvious love for these little birds is so infectious. :)

Lentil is definitely my favorite ❤ thoroughly enjoyed this video!!

I LOVE the females talking, and the male's displays. My favorite bird.

I have a couple of Eurasian nuthatches at my feeder, and me and my partner lovingly refer to them with pet names as "the bandits" or "look, the pointy one came for a snack". They are so brave and inquisitive and one of them impatiently landed on and pecked on a ball of... (Lard? Tallow? I don't know what they are called in English, lol) in my hand while I tried to fit it in the feeder. An absolute joy to just sit and watch them go about their business, and especially at this busy time for them.

We always have nuthatches in our bush and I love to hear them and watch them scampering around the trees. For the first time this spring, I saw a male giving a female a food offering. They were really chattering to each other. So sweet. Hopefully they found a dead tree to nest in.

[coyoten]

oh this is such a treat!! love seeing how nimble they are when they move and all of the little noises they constantly make, really just a delightful lil creachur

[conureron]

That’s hilarious to see the bird hiding seeds on you!

[elmax]
