Tufted Titmouse

A bird feeder favorite in the Eastern U.S., the Tufted Titmouse is known for its perky behavior around feeders. Often it will zip down to a feeder, grab a sunflower seed and flitter back to a favorite branch to crack open its prize.

These little gray birds have oversized eyes and a jaunty head crest that makes them positively adorable and easy to identify for inexperienced bird lovers. They’re also evident in your backyard by their fast “peter-peter-peter” and “day-day-day” songs, which are delivered with a clear whistling noise.
