| "A little
gray bird with an echoing voice, the Tufted Titmouse is common in
eastern deciduous forests and a frequent visitor to feeders. The large
black eyes, small, round bill, and brushy crest gives these birds a
quiet but eager expression that matches the way they flit through
canopies, hang from twig-ends, and drop in to bird feeders. When a
titmouse finds a large seed, you’ll see it carry the prize to a perch
and crack it with sharp whacks of its stout bill."
