On this side of "the pond" I'd call that a red-breasted nuthatch...don't know what it is on your side. Terrific sharpness and a representative pose. These guys are fun to have around.

Nice classic pose for this little nuthatch. To my eyes this is oversharpened and your larger version shows a lot of noise. Background and colors are beautiful. Sharon

I really like the pose and setting in this image along with the birds colors, I would agree with others about the sharpening and noise on the larger image but nice job in getting this unique shot.
