Lake Tahoe, NV (Amazing America TV) — If you ever wanted to feel like Disney’s Snow White, with little songbirds eating out of your hand, we’ve got just the trail for you.
Lake Tahoe, Nevada, is home to the Chickadee Ridge Snowshoe Hike, and to say it’s sprinkled with magic is an understatement.
The trail is just over two miles round trip, with plenty to see. While chickadees are abundant, it takes patience and exploration to get the best chance of a visit from one of these songbirds.
They get their name from the “chick-a-dee-dee-dee” call they make, which is also part of their survival arsenal. The number of “dee” notes can signal the level of threat from predators.
These hardy little birds thrive in winter by lowering their body temperature. If you want to bring something safe to feed them, bring black oil sunflower seeds or unsalted pine nuts.
As for the trail, expect beautiful views and plenty of pine trees.
