It's a Blackcapped Chickadee!

I checked my Birds of North America book to find this bird and thought it might be a Blackpoll Warbler, the colors are very similar. But I don't think we get them here. Any thoughts? Wait! I know now!

Thanks to my Audubon friend, Jim, and always helpful Laura I know the bird is a Blackcapped Chickadee. I should have known! The little Chickadee was seen at Delta Ponds.

excellent capture of a fast moving bird...definitely a blackcap (see them every day up here)...well done to get such a fine image of the little speedster..

Whatever it is, it's a cute bird and a great shot of him.

It’s so cute. They don’t pose long, great job catching it.

Cute shot of him, Vern. I would say almost certainly a Black-capped Chickadee.
