    Last year we found that a Chestnut-backed chickadee was spending the night 
    perched on a hanging hook under the overhang of our front porch in south 
    Berkeley. I put up a roosting pocket (purchased online) as a kind of "hotel 
    room" for the chickadee, but the bird spurned the offering. Instead, within 
    a few months a pair of Bewick's wren built a nest in the roosting pocket. 
    They successfully reared a brood of four young birds.  I hope they return 
    this spring.
