I can't help but be impressed as I look at the nuthatch, its claws clamped onto the side of the tree and holding its body weight in a vertical position. I usually see the nuthatch in this pose prior to its flight to my deck to pick up some sunflower seeds. (I'm pretty sure that, even if I had claws on my legs, they couldn't hold my entire body weight in the same position.)
