283 Red Pine and Chickadees
Called hardy, smart, restless, industrious, and frugal
by John James Audubon, the Black-Capped Chickadee (Parus atricapillus) is a
welcome visitor in Canada and the northern United States, as well as the State
Bird of Maine and Massachusetts. The Chickadee got its name from its distinctive
vocalizations, chickadee-dee-dee being the most recognizable. Slight
variations in the cheeps and twitters can convey an alarm call, a contact request,
or even identifying information about a particular bird or flock.
The artwork of the award-winning Hautman brothers, Jim, Bob and Joe, has been featured in the Oval Office, the Smithsonian Museum, and on more than 40 state and federal stamps. The only brothers ever to win the Federal Duck Stamp Contest, they are currently working on a series of Endangered Species stamps for the United Nations.
James Hautman brings a love of animals and an understanding of the natural
world to this talented representation of the indomitable chickadee and the peacefulness
of his habitat.
Dimensions - round - 6 1/2" diameter.
