Keep nuthatches happy in your yard by planting conifers and nut trees. Nuthatches will enjoy the seeds of pine trees, spruces, firs, and hemlocks. They are very fond of beechnuts, acorns and hickories. At your bird feeders, nuthatches love black oil sunflower seed and nut meats. Suet is an absolute must if you want to keep them around.
Nuthatches are one of the easiest birds to hand tame.
Nuthatches will nest in a bird house built to the proper dimensions. And always offer a source of fresh water for drinking and bathing.
