Tufted Titmouse

"Peanuts! My favorite!"

"Here I am in a closeup view"

"Look at all these seeds!"

"Now which one do I want next?!"

"So many choices!"

"Fancy meeting you here Chickadee, lol!"

They are so cute! Don't you just want to grab um and kiss um? lol

Hi Kim,

Yes, I do! They are so adorable and sweet! They seem to be 'my biggest customer of the peanut feeder'! I can always count on the Titmice to eat from it.

"Checking out the peanuts to see which one I want next"

Nice pics Marilyn! I think everyone knows how I feel about these adorable little pixies. Pelle

The titmice I see have a bit of orange blush on them...and im not sure aabout that black mark at the beak. Going to stand guard at the window for a look. Are there different kinds of tuffted titmice

There's a Texas/Mexico population witha black crest, and some in between. The young don't have the black above the beak.

Yes, I was surprised to see there were 5 different types of Titmouse. Most of the others have a fairly small range.

they are adorable. I love them too

Beautiful Donna! I just finally saw one in my backyard this morning but they were so fast the pics are a little blurry.

Great pics Donna, esp. the closeup one!

Wonderful titmouse photos. I love the close ups Donna! I went to look at my photo of one because yours looks different to me than mine and I figured mine didn't hae the black on its face,... but GUESS WHAT? Mine have that too. I can't put my finger on what makes your mouse look different than mine. This is like one of those "find the difference in the pictures" puzzles lol.

"Gotta have those peanuts!"

"I'll just relax while I get this one on the ground"

I almost forgot about this titmouse photo. While looking for something else I ran across it. It's a timouse stuffing its mouth with cat hair from one of my cats! I put globs of it out in the late winter and spring for nest building every year.

"HEYYYY!! Give dat back or I gonna hit youse upside da head wid a big stick!!"

Lilyfan,


That Titmouse photo is too funny! Thanks for sharing.

Love the cat in the hat! Great photos of the Titmouse birds -How very pretty they are.

"You looking at me?"

There are 2 other birds (don't know for sure what kinds) to the left of the feeder on the brown vines.
