Chickadees are one of my favorite birds. Your photos are amazing. Such detail!
FYI - I'm sure you saw I have 3 of your blogs in my "Great Blogs" list. I just added your name to the beginning of each one, so when I want to view all 3 of them, they are all in a row and easy to find. I hope that is OK with you. If you'd like me to remove your name, just post it or email me. Thanks!

It must be windy all over the state!

We should start a movement to make chickadees the state bird. Cute shots.

Shelly: A Chickadee with a DA haircut on the bottom, how neat. You not only train them you can whisper to them to change their hair styles.

How to (temporarily) turne a black-capped chickadee into a black-crested chickadee!

HI Shelley,
Excellent!!! This chickadee are really cute. Are they as hard as Marsh tit to get into a nice picture?
This set of picture is very nice and does mean that you got time to do two shots at the same place, this is jsut amazing!
