While waiting for my ride today in Bremerton, I saw a pair of chickadee-sized birds moving rapidly from branch to branch in a bush. The crown was brown, as was the back. White cheeks. Possibly a black eye line. I caught a glimpse of brown above the legs, and the the chest was light grayish white. The closest thing in my Audubon guide is the Boreal Chickadee, but I'm too far south for its range. Any ideas?
