Brhlík (Nuthatch)

We found this bird (or rather heard) rattling in our chimney one morning. He must've fallen there in the evening or at night and when we let him out, he was quite disoriented. For a while he just hopped around, chirped a little and looked around as if he'd forgotten what it's like to be outside. He was a little less dirty than I'd expect after a night down a chimney. After a while he flew away. Before he did, I got pretty close to him and took some photos. He wasn't scared - probably had other things on his mind...
