Previously I had posted "An upclose study of Titmouse". Chickadee is very similar to Titmouse and may be belongs to the same family As I studies, Chickadee take one seed at a time and fly to the nearest tree, holds the seed between its feet and break the seed by continuously striking on it. . I think you will like photos of this cute, innocent and adorable bird as well. Thanks.

They are gutsy little birds. A few years ago, I nailed a board/bird feeder to the window by my breakfast nook. Figured it would take a few weeks before the birds would notice it and start using it. I had birds there in the first 1/2 hour. We would sit at our kitchen table and enjoy the birds just a few feet away.
One day I put some sunflower seeds in the palm of my hand and stuck my hand out the window. Almost immediately a chickadee flew down, perched on my thumb and started eating out of my hand. That was an amazing experience.

We have chickadees that eat out of our hand and land on our shoulders at our lake home. I warn my husband to be careful, so he doesn't bring a "hitch hiker" inside. They're sweet little birds.

Well done, Mohammed. You have captured him from just about every perspective! I have loved chickadees ever since I was perhaps 4 or 5 years old. My family received a Christmas card with a picture of two chickadees, perched on a pine branch with a red berry in their bills. At that time I thought it was the most perfect picture! I always have that memory and warm feeling of nostalgia when I see one. Thank you!

I love Chickadees in the winter when it's snowing and they're darting all over the place looking for seeds. And they are fearless like you said. You got some nice shots of them doing their thing as usual. More please.
