Pygmy Nuthatch - Okanagan Falls in the hills behind Vaseaux runs a forestry road that cuts through several different ecosystems and one of them is a dry pine forest. There were several birds in mixed flocks still moving together. One group of small but noisy members were these Pygmy Nuthatches. This particular bird was working an old pine snag. I have always remembered the genus and species name for this bird because of the movie Charlies Angels as Cameron Diaz incorrectly calls out the name of the bird as an oriole and then quotes the Latin name as Sitta Pygmea.
