Tufted Titmouse

Another slate-gray and white visitor to the feeders is the Tufted Titmouse. It looks like a miniature gray-colored Cardinal with its crested head. The white is not as crisp looking as on the Nuthatch in the previous post. The dividing lines between white and gray are more blurred. And, under its wing along its flanks, there's just a hint of reddish brown.

They seem to have a head and especially an eye that's way out of proportion to their body size.
