Field Notes

Description:

The black-capped chickadee has a black cap and "bib" with white sides to the face. Its underparts are white with rusty brown on the flanks. Its back is gray and the tail is normally slate-gray. This bird has a short dark bill

Notes:

Bird flew into window then seat. I see them & other birds frequently but only having an iPhone can't usually get a close enough picture to make it worthwhile posting...
Bird did fly into nearby tree & appeared fine after 15'.
