Chickadee in the Snow

Friday, December 7th, 2018
Black-capped Chickadee, Beech Hill Preserve, Rockport, Maine, 07 December 2018.

Black-capped Chickadee.

Early morning hike in snow. Light snow, flurries. Before the sun emerged, rose, and melted it, the snow lay light and fluffy on everything. But it didn’t fool a chickadee poking around for seeds.
