Abstract
Parus atricapillus at winter bird feeders in Wisconsin obtained c21% of their daily energy requirements. Individuals with home ranges close to the feeder used it more heavily. Number of chickadees visiting the feeder and their feeding rate were higher prior to sunset than in the morning. Feeders were used the most in autumn and the least in spring. Ambient temperature had no effect on use of feeders. -from Authors
