Siberian nuthatch
The Siberian nuthatch (Sitta arctica) is a small passerine bird of the family Sittidae, found in Eastern Siberia. Until 2006, it was usually treated as a subspecies of the Eurasian nuthatch (Sitta europaea).[2] The split was accepted by the British Ornithologists' Union in 2012.[3]
