Ambling in the woods nearby, one of the common voices in this region is that of the Carolina Chickadee. A year-round occupant, easily identifiable, gregarious, and beautiful. They lecture me when the feeders in the back yard need attention and sing to hikers along the trails. Masters of survival under the most brutal conditions, they can find food under the worst circumstances. Members of the Paridae Family that worldwide include 13 Genera and 62 species (Birds of the World). Four Genra and 14 species inhabit North America. These are birds of many faces.
