is for Chickadee.....
A chickadee is a small bird in the titmouse family. They have a unique song that sounds like chick-a-dee-dee-dee. I can remember hearing their song a lot up in Afton Wyoming. There was a large pasture behind my dad's house there. Every morning I would be awakened by the lovely song of the ckickadees. Afton is a beautiful small town where my dad was born and raised. When his mom died he got the house he grew up in. As a kid we spent many weeks there as he remodeled and worked on the house. I was able to know many of my "kin folks" in Star Valley. The house still stands and I wish I could take a trip back to that beautiful valley to hear a chickadee's song.
