Chickadee Chat

There are few birds more cheery than a chipper chickadee. I love how the bright red berries are such a perfect contrast to their tiny tuxedos. These two are looking exceedingly festive—you’ve likely hosted this pair in your own yard—on the way to a party, perhaps?

Each seems to have its own personality and would certainly be welcome at home any time of year.

Original painting. 12”x 12”x 1.5” acrylic on hardboard panel.
