Pair of Chickadee


Pair of Chickadee

Two chickadee feeding together. Very rare. Usually these scrap if they sit together or queue up. I thought this was a cute and rare moment.

Thank you. These stay all winter, tough things. They do look like your Tits. I looked them up and they are classed together in a subspecies I think. THey always call chick-a-dee-dee-dee. Thats where the name came from.

Thanks. Nice to see them again. They don't tend to visit when I'm not getting any sun.

"Very rare," you say. Maybe they're in love... but still about as far apart as they can get on that pole...

I think it is love too. Should be building nests and getting prepared next month or two. Chickadee couples still bicker alot. :-)
