We want to see all of Rex's birds here, too.

A team of dedicated board members, volunteers, and student interns has published every page in Volume 9. This volume includes 360 images of paintings and lyrical descriptions of birds, now available online for everyone to enjoy anywhere in the world. This is a monumental task. Each volume requires approximately 400  hours to photograph, edit, transcribe, catalog, and publish online. We need your support to complete this work.

If you're tech-savvy, have a good eye, are meticulous with details, and love structured data, please consider volunteering by emailing us at hello@rexbrasher.org.

We encourage all bird lovers and supporters to consider a monetary donation to support our mission to make Rex's work available for everyone. You can provide a one-time or recurring donation online.

Mountain Chickadee

Penthestes gambeli gambeli

DESCRIPTION

The white streak over the Mountain Chickadee's eye, where the Master Workman's brush slipped, has not masked its relationship even to the observer who sees the bird for the first time. It is a Chickadee—there's no mistaking that fact. They are just as full of vim—just as inquisitively, unsuspiciously friendly as the bird calling “phee-be" from the old apple tree outside the window this clear July morning. They add another “de", though, and sometimes reverse the notes or vary the call by placing the long “phee" in the middle between two “de's."

Dr. Merrill states that the female sits tight and when disturbed keeps up a constant hissing so much like that of some snakes that no prudent squirrel would venture to enter the hole.

The nest is in a natural cavity or deserted woodpecker hole, usually lined with rabbit fur.
