Challenging Nuthatch Stare
Let's anthropomorphize a little bit. Is this White-breasted Nuthatch giving me the New Jersey "You looking at me?" stare? The little fella at least looks like it might be giving me some "attitude", though that was the only challenging-look picture I got of it. The other pictures looked more like a little bird doing its job of foraging on a tree trunk. Still, some New Yorkers like to think their pigeons act like tough guys, so if we want to attribute something similar to our nuthatches I'm sure we can dig up some anecdotal evidence.
