STOPS ALONG THE WAY

Black-capped Chickadee

24 Comments

Usually black-capped chickadees don’t stay in one place for long. I’ll raise my camera just to miss them as they fly to another tree,  I was more fortunate with this bird, it stayed put long enough for me to get the shot, Another year round bird here.

    Excellent capture and composition, Belinda. Chickadees always make me smile, love their perky nature.

    If ever there were a Black-Capped Chickadee of the silver screen, it was Jean Arthur—small, sprightly, and possessed of a voice like birdsong, equal parts charm and steel. Flitting between comedy and drama with effortless grace, she was both delicate and unshakable, a figure of warmth with a glint of defiance in her eye. Like the chickadee, she never blustered but always made herself heard, her presence lingering long after she’d flown from the frame.

    I love chickadees and you were able to get a beautiful photo of this busy, lovely little bird with their cute call. Here we also have mountain chickadees who are also lovely little birds. 😊
