Beautiful, Anita!! However this is a tufted titmouse. We have many of them at our feeders daily. They are one of my favorite birds. The tuft part of the name refers to that little tuft on the head.

You are so right, Sandy! I changed my title. We have lots here too but I just kept thinking they were nuthatch since they were so aggressive in cracking all the nuts. Thanks Sandy. I always like to know what I capture. Usually when I'm not sure I title without the type of bird.

Here is a comment from Donna.
