have always admired the chickadee, black capped predominantly here in south east alberta. had known that a pair had been nesting in yard, but left well enough along as with all. one morning a call that sounded as that of a very young robin been coaxed from nest asking for food. was actually chickadee just out of nest, with parent coaxing it along. youngsters "call" was a fast, quick "chickadee a dee" but only one "dee".
