Carolina Chickadee (Poecile carolinensis)

Gathering nesting material. I've got two of these guys checking out one of my bluebird houses. They have been back and forth to it, I guess checking that the carpet is clean and the walls an appropriate color! ;o) Not going to make the bluebirds happy. Could have a legal battle on their hands! But my neighbor has two, so 4 within 100 feet. Plenty to choose from. This one in a neighborhood near by. At Collins Creek Landing, Murrells Inlet, SC

That's a terrific picture you've taken of this gorgeous wee chickadee Bob.

Many thanks for showing him to us my friend.
