The RCW has a pek pek sound which is only a little slightly down in pitch from the sharper pic pic of the Downy. I always seem to hear them first. Once I saw 3 on a single tree in Cecil Webb after hearing and then looking for Brown-headed Nuthatch this was in the middle of the day (no sound from the RCW). The other sightings I have had were early morning or late evening near the nesting holes with these alarm peks.
