small, gray, spiked hairdo
overflowing with song
sweet as candy cane
prominent black eyes
lumps of anthracite coal
no flocks for this chickadee
always in pairs, or alone
fussy scolding voice
when perturbed by a mate
otherwise chipper and cheerful
this morning a pair pecks
nibbles seed in the back feeder
selective in their tastes
given it’s spring
most likely babies in the nest
borut..thanks. yes indeed, and now they have BABIES!!!!
Another lover of titmice!:)
Polona: Thanks. The birds are a delight, especially in springtime.

Dan: Thanks for the tip. We see all of the above except the cedar waxwings.
Nice image, Don.
Passing thru here: western tanagers, grosbeaks, and cedar waxwing-type birds. And titmouse-looking ones, too. On their way north…
Thanks!
