My Little Chickadee



So, Here is a Chickadee that came to feed at my newest bird feeder. What I enjoy about Chickadees is that they have paradoxical behavior. Unlike most other birds, that flee with the slightest sound or presence of people, Chickadees will come close to you. I have even been told that you can get them to eat food from your hand. I have tried this but I need to do it consistently in order to get them to trust me. If you don't have a bird feeder I urge you to get one. Bringing birds to your yard can be very enlightening, as well as calming. You will feel better and of course, so will the birds.

    I love the blog. I know you are a photographer. I never knew any of this about chickadees.
