Flittering from branch to branch, the delightful black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) is a captivating sight at backyard feeders and in woodlands across much of Canada. Its diminutive size and inquisitive spirit have the uncanny ability to melt one's heart, as it boldly (but politely) approaches nearly anything it encounters—including people!
The acrobatic chickadee is one of our year-round companions, and its resilience is to be admired since this friendly little songbird braves the same winter conditions we do. When snow and ice have lulled nature into its winter sleep, the chickadee's energetic activity and distinctive song are a welcome sight and sound; its very presence always adds a cheerful, uplifting element to the landscape in any season!
An ideal gift for a bird lover and a fun addition to your existing coin display! Order today!

Design:
Designed by Canadian artist Jean-Charles Daumas, your coin deftly combines sumptuous colours and intricate engraving that leaves one with an appreciation for nature's beauty. The selective application of colour recreates the soft pink and white hues of the magnolia (Magnoliaceae) blossoms, which evoke a warm, sunny day in May. One can imagine the musical call of the black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) filling the air as it sits perched on the branch; engraved in outstanding detail, the diminutive chickadee presents its right-side profile to allow the viewer to study its body shape and narrow tail.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box.
