Black-capped Chickadee - Poecile atricapillus
Little flocks of Black-capped Chickadees enliven the winter woods with their active behavior and their cheery-sounding chick-a-dee callnotes. They are often accompanied by an assortment of nuthatches, creepers, kinglets, and other birds. This is a popular bird across the northern United States and southern Canada, always welcomed at bird feeders, where it takes sunflower seeds one at time and flies away to stuff them into bark crevices.
