There are few predators of black-capped chickadees, most deaths are the result of extreme cold. Their small size, alertness, and agile flight make them difficult to capture. However, small raptors and owls, such as American kestrels, Cooper's hawks, and large, predatory perching birds such as northern shrikes are sometimes able to catch them in flight. Small squirrels, such as eastern chipmunks, and climbing snakes, like smooth green snakes may prey on nestlings and eggs.
