What is it about these little guys?
The ubiquitous black-capped chickadee and the tiny bushtit have been consistent guests to our backyard feeder. Until a few years ago we had no Chestnut-backed Chickadee sightings in our backyard-these days LOTS! They all arrive in a chattering cloud several times each day to enjoy the offerings of black sunflower seeds; we also keep two cakes of chili-suet for the larger birds who, along with the squirrels, get all seeds spilled on the ground. Cheers for the LBBs.

Two at a time at the feeder-dozens of LBBs in the bushes and the Garry Oak
