    Id help for Chickadee in San Francisco

    Attachment: Chickadee.jpg

    Feeder in SF suburbs, early in the morning.  Is this a chestnut backed just from the front? Thank you, FB

    It's a tough view, but I would say yes.  It is the expected bird by range, with the next probably being Mountain Chickadee, which should look quite different even head on like this.

    Thank you all, I really wasn't sure what else it could be but I haven't seen the chestnut backed before and not from this angle.  FB
