Carolina Chickadee
The Carolina Chickadee is one of my common backyard feeder birds. They are cute little birds and at times can be fussy. I am close to the overlap area but I am still not sure if I have seen the Black Capped Chickadee. At times I think I might have heard a different sound coming from these sweet looking birds. My Carolina Chickadee has duller plumage, a shorter tail and a neat lower edge on their bib. they are best told by their song according to my field guide.

Wishing them good luck on their quest to find their way out, through the branches into spring.
These guys look so similar to our Black-capped,of course unfortunately I can't hear their song on the blog.Whatever,they are cute.
Blessings,Ruth
those birds are beautiful
great capture!
I like your Chickadee photographs, especially the one on your header.
Oh my Eileen, such beautiful photos! The first one has very nice composition and the second one is amazingly clear. Love how our feathered friends stand out among the bare branches! Lovely!
I love the Carolina Chickadees, Eileen. They just chatter constantly. You have some great photos.
Love the Great Falls also. I'd love to see them sometime in person.
Hugs,
Betsy
Nice. Thanks for pointing out the subtle details in the different species. Do you ever see brown caps that far south?
A nice bird. I now know it is Black Capped Chickadee or it's a Carolina Chickadee..
That header photo is supurb!
Chickadee, wonderful bird, I didn't know him, thanks so much for this beautiful post!

Chickadees are adorable little birds. I've never seen one but Mountain Chickadees have been found near here.
Wow..beautiful bird, and your close-up is just fantastic!
One of my favorite birds...............! Great photos as usual.
Lovely photos...
The Chickadee's are adorable.
You always have such nice bird captures.

Lovely birds and photos...
I saw that you left a comment on my ICE-pictures from Shannara's SaturdayMix. I would be happy if you would like to participate! =) (gotta try to get some participants somehow... =) )
Gorgeous photos of your chickadees. They are one of my favorites and I love to hear their song.
Eileen: What is funny is I think I only see Black Capped Chickadee and wonder if I'll ever see the other. You have some great photos of yours.
How similar they are to the Black-capped! I wouldn't have noticed a difference visually without your dialog. Very sweet! Love the header this week. ~ks
Cute birds Eileen and so close in looks to the black-capped chickadee.
Oh my....such a wonderful set of photos of the Chickadees. With great clarity too.
Thanks for stopping by today. Always love having you visit.
Lovely captures!
Incredible!!
I realize that I don't know any bird names in English, so following your blog is a great way to learn.
Superb header photo Eileen. they are so much like our Coal Tit (pics on my blog). Keep those shots coming. Phil
Such great photos - especially like the header one, so clear and the little chap is just beautiful! :)
Beatiful chikadees, looks ordinary but very special birds. Great shots.
Thanks for always visiting me. Nice weekend
What a wonderful collection of birds. Particularly enjoyed your post on state birds.

Beautiful shots! Don't you love them? I captured a video the other day, of one singing for me. Everything is waking up in Muskoka!
The black color on their heads is neat!

Pretty birdies!
These are such beautiful birds and I love the overall color tone of this photo! Nice!
Adorable pictures ! I like the one where its little head is peeping out of the its house, lol !
The little bird looking out of the nesting box looks so cute. Nice photo.
Eileen,
Interesting information and good photos. I have only seen the black-capped variety as far as I know.
They look like little balls of fluff.
I love saying chickadee. I must visit the States one day so I can point them out and say chickadeeee. :-)
Very cute birdies.
Great shots of the Carolina Chickadee Eileen! The blog header shot is fantastic!
I LOVE chickadees! And love your header shot too!!
I see only 6 days until Spring...Yippeee!
Gorgeous bird, and fantastic photo
They are beautiful and look like the were painted. I haven't seen any in person so this is a wonderful treat for me. Thanks for sharing.
What a sweet looking little bird. The one peeking out of the feeder is adorable.
I haven't seen a Carolina Chickadee since living in Pennsylvania years ago. Thanks for your lovely photos to reming me of their beauty!
What a cute little bird. they look more colorful than the sparrows we have in our backyard.
Living up North for many years, I got used to the song of the black-capped chickadee. When I moved down here & first heard the Carolina version, it was as though even it had a Southern accent. :)
Nice photos. I have seen the Black cappped up at Catoctin but that is about as close to you that I have seen them.
They are adorable little birds aren't they!
This schickadee looks so much like our Black-capped Chicksdee we have here. lovely Costa Rica bird photos.
