Red Breasted Nuthatch

This week I was lucky enough to see a couple of red breasted nuthatches hovering near the end of pine cones in the trees at the edge of my yard.  They seemed to be getting nectar / sap from the cones.  The hovering action was fun to see, and impossible to photograph.  I did manage to get this shot of one of the birds.  I have only seen this species in my yard one other time, so it was a treat.  
Life's little pleasures.
