Tufted Titmouse

Little Gray Birdies!

The tufted timouse (Baeolophus bicolor) was the first bird to come to my hand for seeds, so it has a special place in my heart. These are talkative, very active birds who flutter about on the ground and in the trees. They are delicate little birds, but stand up for themselves!

The Filming the Feathers video is set to music by Beethoven (Symphonies 6, 1 and 8), condensed and arranged for recorder, performed by Papilan and obtained from MusOpen.org, a royalty-free music source. There is a lot of bathing, primarily because when they are enjoying a bath, they are relatively stationary and I can film them!

Another Silly Video by Susan Kirby. The tufted timouse (Baeolophus bicolor) is one of the most delightful birds that visit Central Park. This latest Filming the Feathers video features the little gray bird in Central Park and other New York parks from 2013 through 2016.

The photos cover four years, from 2013 through 2016, and a lot of sunflower seeds!
