Carolina Chickadee (Poecile carolinensis)

Carolina Chickadee (Poecile carolinensis)

One of our most distinctive and charismatic birds, common throughout the state.

Chickadees often flock together with Tufted Titmice, relatives in the Paridae family. In the fall, migrant warblers and other neotropical migrant songbirds often join these flocks of parids.
