Eurasian nuthatch — size comparison — facts and sources

The Eurasian nuthatch inhabits forests, parks and gardens with mature trees. It has a blue-grey back and dark eye stripe, efficiently climbing trunks and descending headfirst to search bark crevices.

It eats insects, seeds and nuts, caching some in wood. Usually paired and territorial, it nests in hollows and narrows overly large entrances with mud.
