"Chick-a dee-dee-dee"

According to E.B. White, the Black-capped Chickadee, (also the State Bird for Massachusetts), "was put on earth to demonstrate the power of positive thinking. No day is dark, no night is cold, no hour is evil, no harm is in sight, no news is bad. An acrobat and a optimist, the Chickadee is perfectly named (he named himself), perfectly designed. We should all wear a black cap, ignore weather reports, and make friends easily."
