In my wanderings today I noticed that there was a lot of Tufted Titmouse activity around the entrance to the quarry in Ballard Park and on down Hazard Rd. The ones farther away from me were singing the "peter, peter, peter" song, while the ones who could see me were scolding me with their patented harsh, wheezy call (check here for the sounds). Unfortunately, Tufted Titmice are among those small birds who never sit still, so they're tough to get a shot of. Fortunately, my reflexes are getting better. Here are the best shots of the day.

you can come and wash some dishes at my sink, and see all the titmice you care to see through the window. They love whatever mix we are putting into the feeder.
ReplyDelete...love this fellow. You have really nice captures here! We've had a lot around also. They are so fun to listen to and watch. (The blue sky in the background looks fab!)
ReplyDeleteHaha and I was expecting a picture of a rodent!
ReplyDeleteI loved your tufted titmouse and the song it sings! Thank you.
