Chestnut-backed Chickadee Photos

Photography by Terry Sohl

My Favorite: A species of the West Coast, the only time I've seen them have been on family vacations to the coast of Oregon. These photos are all from Ecola State Park in Oregon, a gem of a park on the uplands overlooking Cannon Beach. I had a blast on this morning watching these little guys gathering caterpillars and other food for their young. Photos below are all from June 2011.
