Chickadee by juletee

Chickadee

I think that this is a Chickadee -- perhaps a black capped?? Someone let me know if I am wrong - trying to get good pictures and learn names and songs of the birds that visit my feeder. Thanks for the help.
Stunning shot !

Nice focus and lighting! Indeed this is a Chickadee, not sure of the variety since I don't know where you're located. I would say either black capped or carolina.

@mej2011 I looked in a couple of books and I do believe that this is a black capped chickadee - I am located in Galena Illinois USA. Thanks for the nice comment about the lighting and focus - sometimes I just get lucky.

@juletee
In that case, it should be a Black Capped. The very similar looking Carolina shouldn't be in your part of the woods. I've found http://www.whatbird.com/Expert/Expert.aspx to be agreat help in bird identification.
