Beginning Bird-making: Nuthatch

In this class, we will be making the endearing, endemic bird of the southeastern United States, the Brown-headed Nuthatch. This species is only found in the coastal plain and foothills of the southern Appalachian Mountains. This little bird is much like our other, more common nuthatch, the White-breasted Nuthatch, but is only found living among pines and other conifers. The Brown-headed Nuthatch will provide students with the opportunity to practice some color-blending techniques, as well as how to make a bird that has a different body-shape than most other songbirds.
