Hi everyone, I know that everyone's exuberantly welcoming the return of all of the spring migrant species this week, but has anyone else noticed Red-breasted Nuthatches in places where they normally are not? I'm asking because I did a long walk through Sapsucker Woods this morning on my way to work, and I heard Red-breasted Nuthatches at 3 different locations where I have been regularly making counts for the last 9 months and where I have either never or only once before heard or seen this species. This makes me wonder if we haven't had a minor influx of R.B. Nuthatches flying in with all of the other species...
