The birds featured in this list are some of the most common species seen throughout spring and summer in Massachusetts.
According to the Massachusetts Audubon, bird populations vary with the season:
"For instance, there are some years when most, if not all, of the summering chickadees, Blue Jays, and other "resident" birds are replaced by a different wintering population. Because individuals of a species look pretty much the same, shifts in feeding birds usually go unnoticed except when concentrations become unusually large or when the out-going visitors are not immediately replaced by a new group of hungry customers."
