Lower Makefield Township's Bird of the Month for November 2026 is The Black - Capped Chickadee


🐦 Tiny but tough: Weighing less than half an ounce, this little bird survives freezing winter temperatures by fluffing its feathers and lowering its body temperature at night to conserve energy.

🐦 An incredible memory: Black-capped Chickadees can hide thousands of seeds in different locations and remember where they stored them weeks later!

🐦 A clever communicator: Their familiar “chick-a-dee-dee-dee” call does more than announce their presence. The more “dee” notes they add, the greater the potential threat!

🐦 A remarkable brain: Each fall, the part of their brain involved in remembering food locations grows as they prepare for winter.

🐦 A backyard favorite: Black-capped Chickadees enjoy sunflower seeds, suet, and native trees and shrubs. Some even become comfortable enough to take seeds from a person’s hand!

💚 Let’s keep Lower Makefield Township a great place for birds!
