Along the Chickadee Trail, local hikers often bring sunflower seeds to hand-feed the friendly black-capped chickadees that live in the woods. If you stand still with an open palm, they’ll sometimes land right on your hand to take a seed. It’s a quiet, memorable experience—just be patient, avoid sudden movement, and use unsalted seeds to keep the birds healthy.
