| Not a chickadee, but I wanted to show the squares. |
Chestnut-backed chickadee (Poecile rufescens)—its striking appearance makes it look as if it is dressed in its formal best with a black cap and throat, white cheeks and rust-colored back and sides. It's common in coniferous forests along the Pacific coast; less than 5-inches from its round head to its short tail, a tiny pointed beak like a thorn on a rose stem. You'll find them grubbing for insects, prying seeds from a cone, or plucking berries from bushes, and if you put out a feeder, these little guys will put on a show right outside your window.
And, back to Hollywood Squares, Big Bird from Sesame Street, made a guest appearance, answering his question correctly: which bird is the largest in existence? Do you know the answer?

Hi Kathleen, first time visitor from your MMA group. I'd say Big Bird is the biggest bird.

Welcome, Stephen and good answer. Big Bird "wishes" he were the biggest, but he's no match for the ostrich.
