Its nasal yank-yank call announces its presence year-round at backyard feeders, or in the wooded areas across much of southern Canada. Remarkably, this small songbird enjoys a unique view of its surroundings, for it willthink nothing of creeping down a tree headfirst or hanging upside down from a vertical branch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe white-breast nuthatch is the largest of its kind, and was namedfor its habit of pecking at its meal: first, it wedges a hard-shelled nut or some other type of seed ina crevice in the tree bark; then, it uses its long bill to hammer away until the nut is broken into smaller pieces that are just right for this little songbird!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe nuthatch on your coin is particularly eye-catching as it perches on the prickly branch of a white spruce (Picea glauca) tree. A popular choice for Christmas trees in Canada, this coniferous evergreen is a fixture in the boreal forest that stretches from Newfoundland and Labrador to British Columbia, and north to the arctic tree line. It offers shelter to many woodland species, while sprucecones yield seeds that are happily extracted by many bird species-including the nuthatch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn ideal gift for a bird lover and a fun addition to your existing coin display!

Wicks, your coin features a precision-engraved portrait of a female white-breasted nuthatch (Sitta carolinensis). This little songbird is positioned in a way that offers a side profile view of its facial features as it lifts its long bill upwards; meanwhile, an overhead view of its back and wing plumage reveals a patterned appearance that is artfully conveyed by the detailed engraving. Selective colourrecreates the effect of sunlight alternately illuminating and casting shadows along the needled branch of a white spruce (Picea glauca), where a cone provides a sense of the nuthatch's size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40784778166347,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.002334 - BC17122","price":57.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/false_718a8ca0-7049-4fb8-ad7b-9080448104b5.jpg?v=1717052001","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2017-d10-nuthatch-birds-birds-among-natures-colours-pf-_51oz_-_9999-bc17122","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
