Books about Nuthatch from Amazon.com

In the vein of James Marshall, this picture book provides a gentle lesson about sulking

With humor and a light touch, this story shows that sometimes a bad attitude is the only obstacle to a good time. Silly Penelope Nuthatch receives a letter from her friend Luther Crow promising an unforgettable surprise outing. When she sees a rave newspaper review of Swan Lake, calling it "unforgettable," she assumes Luther is taking her to the ballet. Unfortunately for Penelope, her surprise is a trip to the splashy, sticky, sweaty water park. Pouting and drooping, she sulks her way through the park until she realizes that the right attitude, not location, is the difference between a bad and a good day.

Children will delight in the wildly populated world of Penelope Nuthatch, filled with animals of all shapes and sizes. In addition, kids will relate to Penelope's enthusiasm and pouts, while also feeling pleasantly superior to the silly bird. .

From the supplier: A study has been conducted to examine the effects of spatial positioning on food availability and predator stimulation among nuthatches, chickadees and titmice within heterospecific flocks. Three hypotheses were tested by varying food resources and predator abundance. The results showed that food availability had no influence on the spacing between flocked nuthatches and chickadees and flocked nuthatches and titmice. However, a higher proportion of nuthatches flocked with titmice when food was provided for chickadees. There was no change when food was provided for all species.

From the author: We report an observation of interspecific nest sharing between Red-breasted Nuthatches (Sitta canadensis) and Mountain Chickadees (Poecile gambeli) near Williams Lake, British Columbia, Canada. The nest contained two Red-breasted Nuthatch and three Mountain Chickadee nestlings. The nest was attended by a pair of Mountain Chickadees earlier in the observation period and later by an adult female Red-breasted Nuthatch; all five nestlings fledged. Competition for nest sites due to a decrease in cavity availability may have contributed to this occurrence. Received 5 November 2004, accepted 18 July 2005.
