Why such a_ common bird as 

 the Black-capped Tit should have been wanting^I cannot imagine. 

 It would be interesting to know whether this species wintered in 

 unusual abundance north of Long Island.

41. Chickadee. Common. Found in the 

 thick woods and groves; their food consists of 

 insects and flies. They also like the society 

 of other birds such as Nuthatches and Kinglets. 

 Tills little bird is one of the few who do not 

 migrate, and seems as happy on the coldest 

 day in winter as in midsummer.
