The birder posits that it may be a hybrid chestnut-backed chickadee x yellow-bellied tit due to its having the normal chestnut-backed chickadee features in addition to having a yellow belly. I have no idea about the possibility of a hybrid like this occurring, sounds highly unlikely to me seeing as yellow-bellied tits are in Asia, but I am wondering what explanation there may be for this bird having such a yellow belly?</div><div><br></div><div>Here is the link to the eBird report:</div><div><a href="https://ebird.org/checklist/S105173896">https://ebird.org/checklist/S105173896</a></div><div><br></div><div>Garrett Haynes</div><div>Auburn, WA<br><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div></div></div></body></html>
