Black-capped Chickadee Nest Box Plans

The Black-capped Chickadee is a fairly tame and common backyard bird through much of North America, often found in small flocks foraging through woodlands or at feeders. Black-capped Chickadees prefer mixed deciduous and coniferous forests. They are found both at forest edges and deep within forests. They are also common in rural and suburban areas containing scattered trees, such as old fields, thickets, and parks. Black-capped Chickadees often nest in cavities they excavate themselves. They also nest in natural cavities, abandoned woodpecker holes and nest boxes.
