Carolina Chickadee, November 13, 2021

Saturday's Critters and I'd Rather B Birdin'

Click on the photo to see it at its best.

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, November 12, 2021
Carolina Chickadees, Poecile carolinensis, were named by John James Audubon when he first saw them in South Carolina. They are very similar to the Black-capped Chickadees, Poecile atricapillus, and unless you live where the two ranges overlap, you can use the maps to help with identification. Their main food sources are insects and spiders, but they will come to bird feeders. They seem to especially like sunflower seeds.

Have a wonderful weekend!

    Hello Lea,:=) They are small sweet little birds similar to our Coal Tits. I also love to see the Coal Tits at the feeder eating the Sun Flower seeds

    I thought it was a black capped one. Sunflower seeds are a huge favourite with the birds at the feeder here.
