I am a Black-capped Chickadee

I have a black hat and bib

My mate and I excavate a tree cavity

Each year to make our little nesting crib.

Location: Cape Cod, MA

(Note: I'm feeling a little homesick, so I thought I'd dedicate this week to the last time I had a real vacation with my sibs when we went to Cape Cod in July of 2016. Enjoy the trip up north!)
