Peanut bandit! - for Trevor!

Peanut bandit! - for Trevor! (Certhia familiaris)

Strange tastes this one. It likes to eat peanuts and sunflower hearts! Several times it returned to this feeder every 10-15 minutes to snatch a peanut or sunflower heart. It looked odd jabbing it's narrow bill and grabbing a chunk before flying off. I've only managed fuzzy photos so far of it carrying away the food.
