I know their call...
Two whistled notes, the first higher then the second,
to my ear, it sounds like "feed me"...and feed them I do!!
It is the Black Capped Chickadee
They visit year round and are the friendliest bird that comes to the feeders.
They rarely fly away when I sit and watch them...
they pose beautifully for the camera...
and rarely allow a branch to come between them and my lens.
They sing for treats...
and take off slowly, to allow for a picture.
They are just the sweetest little birds, dressed for winter...
don't you just love their jet black caps?
