Titmouse

Baeolophus bicolor

Description:

The large black eyes, small, round bill, and brushy crest gives these birds a quiet but eager expression that matches the way they flit through canopies, hang from twig-ends, and drop in to bird feeders. When a titmouse finds a large seed, you’ll see it carry the prize to a perch and crack it with sharp whacks of its stout bill.

Habitat:

They are found in the USA and Canada in most eastern woodlands below 2,000 feet elevation, including deciduous and evergreen forests. Tufted Titmice are also common visitors at feeders and can be found in backyards, parks, and orchards. Seen in my yard.

Thank you; the quality would have been better if it had not been through my living room window. :) But they were posing nicely!
