Range (Northern North America) (III)

Northern North America, from Nova Scotia, northern New England, and northern Michigan northward; south in winter rarely to Massachusetts. Cambridge, rare, perhaps only casual, W. V., Nov. 1 to Apl. 1. Nest, of moss and felted fur, in holes in trees and stumps. Eggs, six to seven, not distinguishable from those of P. atricapillus, 61 x 50. This northern Chickadee is frequently found associated with P. atricapillus, which it resembles in habits, though its notes are quite unlike the notes of that species.
