Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus)
Cascade Mountains - Jackson County - Oregon - USA
Habitat : Forests
Food : Insects
Nesting : Cavity
Behavior : Foliage Gleaner
Conservation : Low Concern
"A bird almost universally considered “cute” thanks to its oversized round head, tiny body, and curiosity about everything, including humans. The chickadee’s black cap and bib; white cheeks; gray back, wings, and tail; and whitish underside with buffy sides are distinctive. Its habit of investigating people and everything else in its home territory, and quickness to discover bird feeders, make it one of the first birds most people learn." - Cornell Lab of Ornithology
