Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds and Nature in Natural Colors, Vol. 5 of 5: Being a Scientific and Popular Treatise on Four Hundred Birds of the United States and Canada It is a great mistake to think we must wait until spring or summer before we can begin the study of birds. Besides the owls, of which mention was made last month, there are several varieties of small birds that are with us the year round. Cold and stormy, indeed, must be the day if one may not be able to find the energetic little fellow, the White Breasted Nuthatch, busy among the barren branches. You may know him by his slate-blue back, black cap and nape, and white belly. He is much given to hanging on the sides of trees, head downward. Up the tree he goes, only to whirl round and come scooting down the other side head foremost. Round and round he goes, poking his needle-like bill into all the crevices of the bark after insects, their grubs or their eggs.
