Red-breasted Nuthatch in St. Louis County
2015-01-17

Common in St. Louis County in the Winter season

This partially leucistic Red-breasted Nuthatch is coming to a feeder on private property on the West Knife River Road in Duluth Township. The bill is light pink and legs and feet are yellowish-orange. In flight the primaries are nearly all white. The bird is the same size as the "normal" Red-breasted Nuthatches that are using the feeder.
