I have three titmouse’s that love it when I toss peanuts out for them, winter months really bring them out.
The Bridled Titmouse (Baeolophus wollweberi) perched in the shrubs at Cave Creek Ranch near Portal, Arizona, U.S.A.
This was on a trip we took on our first venture on a winter holiday into the United States with the focus on Arizona. It proved very successful with the wide variety of new bird species for me.

Tufted Titmice look large among the small birds that come to feeders, an impression that comes from their large head and eye, thick neck, and full bodies. The pointed crest and stout bill help identify titmice even in silhouette.
Tufted Titmice are acrobatic foragers, if a bit slower and more methodical than chickadees. They often flock with chickadees, nuthatches, and woodpeckers and are regular visitors to feeders, where they are assertive over smaller birds. Their flight tends to be fluttery but level rather than undulating.
You’ll find Tufted Titmice in most eastern woodlands below 2,000 feet elevation, including deciduous and evergreen forests. Tufted Titmice are also common visitors at feeders and can be found in backyards, parks, and orchards.
I found this one in my backyard in Polk County, Florida.
Finally found something a little interesting the other day down in Waterloo. There have been a pair of these little birds hanging out at a small wilderness area / wetland drawn to the seed. Even though they visit feeders trying to get a half decent shot I find is still difficult, and this particular photo took a labour of amounting to 3 hours freezing in the cold, but finally it came.
The Tufted Titmouse does not stay still for very long and is often hidden in thickets. There is a slight blur across the body from a foreground branch. I don't think it subtracts from the photo. (Royal Botanical Gardens)
I wish it was a common backyard bird in my area, as it is in the eastern U.S. It travels with chickadees, juncos, and other songbirds. But is rarely seen as it is quite skittish. This one was very cooperative to be photographed and it made me very happy to see it, even though it took me a good hundred klicks to drive to see it.

Hi everyone, I have been away for a long time. I just got pissed with a Facebook Group and decided I'm coming back here again. This is the one site that always felt like home. Starting with a titmouse from my backyard today.
I hope everyone enjoys this image! :D
