Anderson’s action shot at her backyard bird feeder in Michigan is the first-place winner in the Behavior category of the 2019 Great Backyard Bird Count photo contest. In below-zero temps, these Black-capped Chickadees duked it out over a plump peanut.
The 2020 Great Backyard Bird Count is February 14 to 17.
