Tufted Titmouse Images, Facts and Information:
Baeolophus bicolor
- Tufted Titmouse are little gray birds with a distinctive crest on their heads. They also have large black eyes and a short, stout bill.
- Tufted Titmice are common in eastern deciduous forests and a frequent visitor to feeders. Their range has been expanding northward over the last half-century.They live in deciduous woods or mixed evergreen-deciduous woods, typically in areas with a dense canopy and many tree species. They are also common in orchards, parks, and suburban areas. Tufted Titmice are nonmigratory.
- Tufted Titmice mostly eat insects and seeds. Insects make up close to two-thirds of their annual diet, with caterpillars being the most important prey in summer. In addition, they eat wasps, bees, sawfly larvae, spiders, snails, and other small invertebrates. They will also eat seeds, nuts, and berries, especially in winter.
- Tufted Titmice lay 3 to 9 eggs which take 12 to 14 days to hatch. The females incubate and they are monogamous. Both parents feed the young, which leave the nest after about 16 to 18 days.
- Groups of titmice are called a “banditry” of titmice.
- Tufted Titmice can live to be about 14 years old.
