Field Notes
Description:
The Mountain Chickadee is a small songbird.
They are known colloquially as Cheeseburger Birds, as their call sounds like they are saying "cheese-bur-ger."
Habitat:
Common inhabitants of the mountainous regions of the western United States, their range extends from the southern Yukon to California and Rocky Mountain States in the United States. A few Mountain Chickadees may migrate locally up the mountains in the summer and down into the mountain foothills in the winter. I saw this one in Bryce canyonon a pine tree.
