    I think you might actually have a Chestnut Backed Chickadee there - I've been seeing a lot of them this year, but they've been a bit too quick for me.

      I think you are right. I have never seen or heard of chestnut-backed chicks before; they're new to me! Thanks for the id check. Posted 10 years ago
