I asked a friend from church (who also has a bird book) about the mystery bird in the previous post. She seems to think it is a Tufted Titmouse, but as she said, "Maybe he/she was having a bad hair day and his tuft was matted!"
He showed up again today and the pictures show a bit more of a tuft. They do look very similar! It's very puzzling!




If you read my article from this morning, you know that I mentioned that I have seen blue jays on my morning walk. I had hoped that they would come to our yard soon. Well, not only did I get
one today, I got
six! There were at least six in our yard this afternoon eating the leftovers on the ground. I'm so excited!


Just in case you think all I do is sit and watch birds, it is NOT true. I usually grab the camera when I hear a bunch of birds outside. You should hear them singing! They make quite the racket. It's obvious the birds love the woods behind our house and the seed in the feeder.

Yeah, that's definitely a titmouse, but his somewhat missing tuft is kind of funny. :^)
Do you think the one in the previous post is a Titmouse too then? The one from today seemed more definite!
Steve also thinks they are both tufted titmouse. He and I think maybe an immature one? Maybe his tuft will grow. :-)

Maybe he was slicking it down for his female friends!
