Brown-Headed Nuthatch/ Chickadee confrontation



	Sunday I observed a Brown-headed Nuthatch hanging under a branch with a
Carolina Chickadee in its bill. It was shaking the poor chickadee as it
swung beneath it. The nuthatch was holding the chickadee somewhere in the
rump area (the chickadee's head was hanging down). After a couple of seconds
it let go and life went on. Very strange.
