Similar, but Different

In the past three kinds of Chickadees have visited here.  They are Black-capped Chickadees, Chestnut-backed Chickadees, and Mountain Chickadees.  But most of  time I see the first two here.  The last one visits here only when they can not find  enough food in the mountains.




"Hi, I am black-capped Chickadee.  I live here 
nearby and come here everyday."


"Can you see my chestnut color on the back?  
I am a little smaller than the black-capped."


I have seen the Mountain Chickadees only one winter and it has been several years since.
