Trying to photograph the Tufted Titmouse

That happened to me last week Dave drove me nuts.

I can't figure it out. Sometimes it will let me load eight or 10 in a row. and other times, just one. Funny thing. It will let you post a reply anytime you want. It is just when you want to attach a picture that it acts up.

Last try.

One more. You see, they also like meal worms.

Well, in that one he just looks surprised. This one shows they like them

Yep, it's def weird sometimes.


Do you use the live mealworms?

Yes, I buy them 10,000 at a time every two weeks. and keep them refrigerated.

I don't know if hubby would like me keeping them in the fridge...maybe in the mini one in the garage with his beer???

That's me, too. My wife made me buy a fridge that I keep in the basement. The worms are actually pretty clean but they look very dirty sometimes and she won't have them in either the fridge in the kitchen or the one we have in the garage.

They are beautiful shots Dave and I love the Titmouse. I rarely get a shot at them since they seem to never stop moving...great catches!

They have discovered the meal worms, and since they are not aggressive, I get most of my good photo ops while they wait for the other birds to finish eating.

Their wonderful pics Dave!!

Wonderful thread! Such cute birds, such great pics!

You keep saying that and I'll keep looking for more of them. (Thanks)

Find more!!!! I love the colors of your little guys and the photos are so great. Love that fluffy one!!

Here's one more

It's not that I don't have lots of pics. Sometimes this server won't accept more than one in a row, so I just go away for awhile.

A rather typical pose.

One more...

Wonderful shots Dave!

That is a nice one showing all his color under the wing.

I think this one was taken when at the same time as the one immediately above.

I'm so glad there's more to see-fantastic shots!! That last one should be framed-no, change that, they all deserve to be framed and hung on the wall!

One more on the same perch.

Close up

That one is so cute!

Hi all...I've been away for awhile with my husband who was in the hospital for 40 days....I was going thru birding withdrawal but I've been making up for lost time this week. Birding is pretty slow but I managed to get a few of some Titmice. I have a really cute one that I have stored on a flashdrive somewhere that I need to find and post here but for now I'll post one I took today.
i love it when you see their beautiful dark eyes with that black spot between them

Sorry to hear about your husband, CBL. Hope he continues to mend.

This guy sure has a brown tone to him. Very unusual around here.

This one is more typical.

Another try

That's all for now. The server won't let me upload any more.

Well. this last one

Here's a little cutie I just have to add.

Such neat looking little birds! That brown one is unusual looking, could he be a hybrid?

Beautiful photos!! That last one sure has a lot of color and personality.

Thanks for the comments. One more.
