Tufted Titmouse

By

Nature lives at the WooFDriver’s home too! The Tufted Titmouse(Baeolophus bicolor) is a frequent visitor to his feeder as they are common in the eastern forest areas under 2000 feet elevation. Their large black eyes give them their name as they resemble a mouse’s eyes. They have a pointed crest on top their heads and a stout bill making it easy to identify them even in silhouette. They are very agile flying through the tree canopy, hanging from the end of twigs and dropping into feeders. They can be seen feeding with chickadees, nuthatches and woodpeckers.
