Chickadee, Black-capped

This they only picture I think I have of this Black-capped Chickadee.  They have a  black cap and bib, white cheek and side of nape; back is gray or brownish to olive gray. The breast is white .Colors are brighter and more contrasting in winter and spring.  When the feathers change they are more muted in summer. This one was seen in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
