About These Birds

Bahama Nuthatch

The Bahama Nuthatch is a Critically Endangered nuthatch endemic to the pine forests of Grand Bahama Island, weighing about 9.95g with a wingspan of 13cm. It forages on tree bark for insects and larvae, creeping headfirst down trunks in typical nuthatch fashion. Habitat destruction and introduced predators have severely reduced its population.

The Algerian Nuthatch is an endangered nuthatch weighing about 17 g with a wingspan near 17 cm, discovered in 1975 and endemic to a few small forest patches in northeastern Algeria. It clings to tree trunks and branches in typical nuthatch fashion, probing bark for insects and seeds.
