Fun Facts

The Black-capped Chickadee is a friendly bird often spotted at backyard feeders. The Mountain Chickadee is similar but has a black eyebrow and a raspier voice. They are typically found in the mountains but may also venture into the valley during the winter. Our sole titmouse, the Juniper Titmouse, is a less predictable and a real treat when it crosses your path. Pay attention to what you hear, as these birds have fairly recognizable calls and songs.
