Black-Capped Chickadee
Curious and feisty, the black-capped chickadee is a dynamic bird whenever it visits feeders, which it does often if black oil sunflower seed is offered. These birds are easily recognized by their black caps and throats, buffy flanks, and gray upperparts. In southern regions, these birds are replaced by their nearly identical cousin, the Carolina chickadee; both can be attracted to yards.
