The Chestnut-backed Chickadee is a vibrant and active tit species of western North America, easily identified by its rich chestnut-brown back and flanks. It is a common resident of coniferous and mixed forests.
Where to spot
Found along the Pacific coast of North America, from southern Alaska to central California, inhabiting coniferous and mixed forests, particularly coastal redwood and fir forests.
How to spot
Look for them in conifer trees. Their chestnut back is unmistakable. Listen for their distinctive 'chick-a-dee-dee' call, which can be faster and higher pitched than other chickadees.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active throughout the day, particularly mornings.

These chickadees are highly acrobatic, often foraging upside down on branches and conifer cones to extract insects and seeds.
