ID help

[kimberly]

This was taken at Myrtle Beach State Park this past weekend. I think it is a Brown-headed Nuthatch but not sure. Can anyone help. Quality not good but just looking for ID if there is enough info in the picture. Thanks

Taken in shade ISO 300 300mm f/5.6

Kim,

I would say your ID is correct. The brown top of the head, the white chest, the sharp narrow beak, and the dark line through the eye. Sure looks like a Brown-headed Nuthatch to me. The second image helps more than the first one.

Don't forget our posting rules, one image per day.
