Wish i could identify this washed out looking kingfisher shaped bird,
seen it three times today, brother has no idea what it is and he is a
bird watcher! Flattish head which is why it has a similar shape to a
kingfisher (to my eyes) very pale colours eats seed from perches on
hanging feeder. Smaller than KF though.

Could it have been a nuthatch? Relatively smaller beak, too, but
generally rather the same shape with a short tail like a kingfisher.
