Howdy folks,

I was able to relocate the Brown-headed Nuthatch in Occoquan Regional Park around 3:20 today. It was a bit further down the down the road where there are pines on both sides. There is a brick thing on the right side of the road that redirects the water flow very near where I saw the bird. I first heard it's squeaky call and then was able to draw it in with pishing and a bit of brown-headed nuthatch tape. Renee Grebe showed up a bit later and I was able to show her the bird. I left around 4:00 with Paula and Jack Sullivan looking for the bird, Paula with her ever ready camera in hand. Hopefully she'll be able to photograph it.
