Helped by a big head and no neck, the Nuthatch jams seeds and nuts into tree bark then whacks them with their beak to break them open, hence…nut hatchers! A favourite among backyard birds, especially with kids who know it as the “upside-down bird”, the Nuthatch has three toes facing forward and one big toe facing back so they can creep head first down tree trunks in the search for insects. Our Nuthatch stands proudly upright, but go ahead and tap it in upside down if you’re keen to keep the young ones happy. 

Our Nuthatch is:

• 5 inches high by 6 inches wide (doesn't include measurement of the branch/spike)
• Easily installed with the tap of a hammer (pre-drill hard wood)
• Designed in 1/7-inch Corten® steel to form a beautiful patina of rust that changes with the seasons
• Shipped to you quickly
• A great gift to mark a child’s birthday or for someone who has never lost their sense of wonder
