Possible Hybrid Chickadee

I know it’s been a few months since this sighting, but only recently did it gain any attention. My first Chickadee observation could possibly be a hybrid of a Carolina Chickadee and a Black-capped Chickadee. At first I, along with another user, thought it was just a Carolina Chickadee. However, 2 months later, mdhafner found that it had Black-capped Chickadee characteristics. Could this be a hybrid? It would be a first for Green Ridge State Forest, and would indicate the hybrid zone has moved. However, I know nothing, so I am going to leave it to the experts. What do you all think?
