Avian Image of the Week for the week ending Dec. 27th, 2013: Jim Crosswell - White-breasted Nuthatch

[Daniel Cadieux]

Congratulations Jim!

This was taken in January this year at a local Nature Center. I have been processing image from Florida but thought one with snow would be more appropriate for the holidays. Merry Christmas!
