[cobirds] Mountain Chickadee in Littleton

Hi Birders.  I had a Mountain Chickadee in my backyard yesterday.  He appeared to be by himself, feeding on peanut splits.  I suspect he may have been a first year, as the cap on top of his head was not completely filled in with black; there was a small white patch in the center of his black cap.  His behavior was also different than my regular Chickadees.  He fed in a frenetic, somewhat aggressive fashion.  Has anyone else ever seen one at this elevation?
 
Thanks,
Nicolle Martin
