The black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) is a small, nonmigratory, North American passerine bird that lives in deciduous and mixed forests. It is a member of the Paridae family, also known as tits. It has a distinct black cap on its head, a black bib underneath, and white cheeks. It has a white belly, buff sides, and grey wings, back, and tail. The bird is well known for its vocalizations, including its fee-bee call and its chick-a-dee-dee-dee call, from which it derives its name.
The black-capped chickadee is widely distributed throughout North America, ranging from the northern United States to southern Canada and all the way up to Alaska and Yukon. It feeds primarily on insects and seeds, and is known for its ability to cache food for use during the winter. The hippocampus of the black-capped chickadee grows during the caching season, which is believed to help it better remember its cache locations. The black-capped chickadee is a social bird and forms strict dominance hierarchies within its flock. During the winter, these flocks include other bird species. It has the ability to lower its body temperature during cold winter nights, allowing it to conserve energy.
Black-capped chickadees build nests in tree cavities, with the nesting season starting in late April and lasting until late June. They lay on average 6–8 eggs, which hatch after 11–14 days. Juveniles fledge 12–16 days after hatching.
The population of black-capped chickadees is thought to be increasing, and they are considered a species of least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). It is the state bird of both Massachusetts and Maine in the United States, and the provincial bird of New Brunswick in Canada.

This white-capped albatross flew straight towards our small tour boat. It then settled on the water quite close to us probably hoping we were a fishing vessel and may throw over some off-cuts!

Cap Fréhel is a peninsula in Côtes-d'Armor, in northern Brittany, France which extends off the Côte d'Émeraude into the Golfe de Saint-Malo. No towns or villages are situated on the peninsula however two lighthouses, one from the 17th century and the other one from 1950, are located at the tip of it. The Cap is located 8.5 km from the town centre of Fréhel.
The peninsula is surrounded by mainly cliffs which make it difficult to access it via sea. The whole of the undulating terrain is covered in moorland and marshes which make it difficult to construct any structure on the site.

Orographic cap clouds form during mountain wave conditions, when strong winds blow across mountain ranges. The presence of these clouds is significant in that they are usually associated with dangerous turbulence. All of the orographic cloud forms (rotor clouds, lenticular clouds and cap clouds) are unique in that they are stationary over a particular area and do not move with the wind flow, but rather circulate in place much like a giant eddy in the sky.

These three ink caps were growing inside a rotting tree stump. The trunk is hollow apart from close to the ground where these are growing.

I found a very young Red-capped Plover chick on the beach at Buffalo Creek. For the most part it was busy begging its mother for food, however, as the sun was setting on the day, the mother called out to her chick who quickly scurried over & nestled in under her wing as she settled down into a small indentation in the sand.
Black-capped chickadee (Parus atricapillus) is a bit unusual in my woods. Bright contrasting black and white stands out markedly compared to his more common cousin, the boreal chickadee (Parus hudsonicus).
On my walk along the trails today I saw two black capped chickdees (Poecile atricapillus) out of the corner of my eye flitting away. I stopped for a moment to see if they stayed around, and a few seconds later one returned to this hole in an old poplar tree. I parked myself on the ground about 20 feet away and snapped a number of photos as they worked back and forth to prepare their nest. Awesome!
