The Quandary

A Carolina Chickadee. Photo by Bruce Stambaugh

I chuckled when this Carolina Chickadee landed on the rim of my window feeder and briefly struck this pose.

It looked like the little bird was trying to decide which black oil sunflower seed to choose. Of course, that’s a biased human observation. In reality, the bird likely was looking for a good seed amid the litter of spent seed shells left by other birds.

It soon found one and flew away to crack the shell open to get to the sunflower meat.
