Black-capped Chickadee

Black-capped Chickadee: A small songbird found all across North America. They are mostly gray in color with a black "cap" and throat, with white stripes on the sides of the face. These birds display a boldness around humans and will often eat from the hand.

I've been seeing these birds all over campus this winter. They often reside in the same small patch of earth as the Dark-eyed Juncos. I see them in shrubs and near the Cherry Blossoms by the baseball field.
