The boreal chickadee (Poecile hudsonicus) is a small passerine songbird in the tit family Paridae. It is found in the boreal forests of Alaska, Canada and the northern United States and remains within this range all year.[2] This bird is known for its high pitched trill patterns used in communication with other birds and food storage habits in preparation for winter months.
