In the more southern portions of New Mexico and Arizona, this appears 

 to he a very generally distributed species, and, in certain localities, was 

 frequently met with. Of its breeding habits, nothing is known. In the fall, 

 however, these are very distinct from the preceding species. Instead of 

 being found in small companies or as stragglers on the skirts of the large 

 flocks of other species, it habitually moves about in flocks, composed often 

 of twenty-five, and even more, of its own species ; its exclusiveuess in this 

 particular being quite noticeable, though once or twice I have seen a few 

 on intimate terms of companionship with the other Chickadees. It pays 

 especial attention to the oaks, in which trees they move about slowly from 

 limb to limb, scrutinizing each crevice and fold of bark which is likely to 

 serve as a hiding place for insects. They are thus very thorough in their
