I saw some White-breasted Nuthatches over the weekend in the foothills of
Jefferson County. This got me wondering about sub-specific identification.
Sibley has three groups in his guide. The two I am wondering about are what
he calls "Interior West" and "Eastern." Does anyone know if somewhere
online (or in a book), there is a good photographic comparison of these
groups? The residents in this state would be Interior West birds, but it
might be possible to get Easterns here during the winter. As these groups
may eventually be split to species level, it would be something good to be
keeping track of. I can't find good photos where the subspecies is clearly
known.

Thanks
