Nice one Alan. The very dark "tuft" is striking. Those around here are less dramatic.

I can't decide if I like the perch or the bird better? :) Great stuff Alan.

Awesome photo Alan, as always.
I'm not trying to be "that guy" but I thought I would mention that Tufted Titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor) and Black-crested Titmouse (B. atricristatus) were split in 2002. I'm sure you know, just pointing it out.
Do you notice many hybrids in the area?

Doug, you are right! So many splits that I forget sometimes. I'm glad they split this species and have them listed that way on my site, just had a brain misfire when posting here.
