other birds that are prized much higher for the 

 music of their song. 



The fall and winter is spent by the Chickadee in 

 searching the timber for food and i n uttering 

 their Chick-a-dee-e as they hang to the limbs, 

 some times back down and sometimes erect. 

 They are not very wild and will allow you to ap- 

 proach very near them before taking flight.
