Mountain Chickadee

Poecile gambeli

Description:

The tiny Mountain Chickadee is a busy presence overhead in the dry evergreen forests of the mountainous West. Often the nucleus in mixed flocks of small birds, Mountain Chickadees flit through high branches, hang upside down to pluck insects or seeds from cones, and give their scolding chick-a-dee call seemingly to anyone who will listen. (Cornell)

Notes:

These guys are year-round residents in the foothills west of Denver.
