What Is a BHN?

The brown-headed nuthatch is a tiny songbird found in the southeastern states. It is three to four inches long and weighs three to four ounces. Its call is a squeaking noise not unlike a rubber duck. It enjoys sunflower seeds, which it can pound open with its sharp beak. The nuthatch has a blue-gray color, and dull brown crown. It climbs headfirst down tree trunks.
