title: Carolina chickadee

text: Identification is very difficult even with an excellent view. The most famous call is the familiar "chick-a-dee-dee-dee" which gave this bird its name and its song is "fee-bee-fee-bay". Carolina chickadees are so similar to black-capped chickadees that they themselves have trouble telling their species apart. Because of this they sometimes mate producing hybrids. The most obvious difference between the three chickadees is that the Carolina chickadee sings four-note song, black-capped sing two-note songs, and the hybrids sing three-note songs. Their breeding habitat is mixed or deciduous woods in the United States from New Jersey west to southern Kansas and south

It is found in the Pacific Northwest of the United States and western Canada, from southern Alaska to southwestern California. It is a permanent resident within its range, with some seasonal movements as feeding flocks move short distances in search of food. They usually move to lower elevations in the same area upon onset of winter and move back up to higher elevations in late summer. It is a small chickadee, long with a weight of . The head is

The calls and song also differ subtly to an experienced ear: the Carolina chickadee's "chick-a-dee" call is faster and higher pitched than that of the black-capped chickadee, and the Carolina chickadee has a four note "fee-bee-fee-bay" song, whereas the black-capped omits the high notes.

Thirteen distinct types of vocalizations have been classified, many of which are complex and can communicate different types of information. Chickadees' complex vocalizations are likely an evolutionary adaptation to their habitat: they live and feed in dense vegetation, and even when the flock is close together, individual birds tend to be out of each other's visual range. One of the most recognizable sounds produced, particularly by the males, is the two-note "fee-bee" song. It is a simple, clear whistle of two notes, identical in rhythm, the

The two species were formerly thought to be easily distinguished by call, but they often learn each other's vocalizations where their ranges overlap (their point of overlap is a narrow band that runs along the east-central United States, with the black-capped chickadee to the north). A bird located near the zone of overlap that sings both songs, or sings "odd-sounding" songs, cannot be positively identified solely

One of the major ways that habitat fragmentation affects biodiversity is by reducing the amount of suitable habitat available for organisms. Habitat fragmentation often involves both habitat destruction and the subdivision of previously continuous habitat. Plants and other sessile organisms are disproportionately affected by some types of habitat fragmentation because they cannot respond quickly to the altered spatial configuration of the habitat. Habitat loss, which can occur through the process of habitat fragmentation, is considered to be the greatest threat to species. But, the effect
