The Turkey Pro Sez: "Attracting songbirds to your property or area you hunt is a fun and rewarding hobby. Chickadees are easy to attract for even novice "birders".  The Secret is the nesting box. This "Slab" Nest Box, when properly located, will surpass other boxes in attracting and holding Chickadees because of its natural, weathered look.  The birds take to it much more quickly. 

These little birds speak their name and do acrobatic stunts on tree branches to the delight of all bird watchers.  Four species of Chickadee use nesting boxes.  The Black-Capped Chickadee lives in northern and most Midwestern states as well as in most of Canada.  Identify it with its black cap and bib and white cheeks.  The Carolina Chickadee, which looks very similar, lives in the southeast quarter of the U.S.A. and has a higher, faster version of the "chick-a-dee-dee-dee" call.  The Mountain Chickadee has a white "eyebrow" through its black cap and lives in and west of the Rocky Mountains.  The Chestnut-Backed Chickadee has a chestnut-brown back and a brown cap and lives in the northwest and along the California coast.  The Black-Capped and Carolina Chickadees prefer mixed forests, open woodlands and suburban areas, while their western cousins prefer coniferous forests.

Nest Boxes can be located almost anywhere.  Your "Slab" Nest Box will be much more acceptable to Chickadees if you place a small amount of sawdust or wood chips inside the box.  They will work to remove some of it before nesting there, which to them appears to be a hole in a rotting tree, which is a preferred natural nesting site.

Birding is a great wildlife, hands-on project that will be enjoyed by all members of your family.  Start with a "Slab" Nest Box for instant success."
