The Black-crested Titmouse (Baeolophus atricristatus), is the western version of the eastern Tufted Titmouse. A cute, but feisty, little bird that is one of my favorites. I took the following photographs a couple of years ago with my Canon 40D camera. I came across the images when sorting through a few this morning and I thought you’d like to see them.
