They don't really flit at all but they do have a kind of 'bumpy' flying line. <br /><br />Andrea - we've thought of setting up a webcam since we miss most of what they're up to.<br /><br />Lindy - they seem to drop more moss than they carry off. Good thing there's lots of it there.<br /><br />Rose - good luck with your finches. We've only ever had one finch nest. It was in a clematis and he cat used to go mad trying to walk on the trellis to get the birds. Never succeeded.<br /><br />Rachel, Mimi - this is the first time we've had a house for the chickadees used. But this is a new-build so maybe that's more attractive.<br /><br />Wendy - whatever it is they're pretty quiet.Stephanie Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206167025245206754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839575896417104888.post-20713478922312696582010-04-07T17:23:47.351-07:002010-04-07T17:23:47.351-07:00Awww!

One day last week there were at least 3-4 pair of them fighting it out for the house, but alas, no photos. Too quick moving for me.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00691293013547048119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839575896417104888.post-74003857973650288652010-04-07T09:51:36.152-07:002010-04-07T09:51:36.152-07:00First I have to tell you that you absolutly cracke...First I have to tell you that you absolutly cracked me up with your comment on my blog about liposuction and peeps having no fat content!! How true, but I never thought of it that way. These chickadees don't look exactly like ours! Remember my chickadee post from a few weeks back? Ours are tinier, with almost no tail. But there's two kinds of chickadees, and yours must be the second kind. Maybe yours won't nervously flit as much as mine. Because your pictures are great. I especially love the one with his mouth full of moss! What a good springtime document of nest building. You have to keep us posted on the eggs and babies.Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839575896417104888.post-83493937723984445932010-04-07T09:41:17.275-07:002010-04-07T09:41:17.275-07:00How fortunate for you to have the chickadees nesti...How fortunate for you to have the chickadees nesting at your place.

I'm certain I have a hummingbird nest somewhere on the property, but no idea where (some very territorial activity around the feeder).Andreanoreply@blogger.com
