Would you believe that I have never seen a Titmouse up here in Wisconsin?
But when I go to Missouri I get to see them.
Thankfully, they let me share some space with them while I'm visiting.
PS We'll be making another trip to Missouri this weekend to bring Marissa and Cole back up for a few weeks. :)
What a beautiful bird. The eyes are so intense. He seems very aware and comfortable.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the plural of "titmouse" anyway? "Titmice?" "Titmouses?"
ReplyDeleteSo I guess you get what?... legmouses in Wisconsin? (Legmice? Legmouse?) My kinda bird... I'm a legmouse from way back!
The plural? Teetmice.
ReplyDeleteSo, not a mouse then.
He isn't used to seeing you either, he is checking you out.

I've never seen any around here, either. But my brother has them in Paradise, CA
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie!!!
ReplyDeleteThe comments cracked me up! Teetmice huh? Heehee!
They're really cute birds, but I always had trouble getting good shots of them in focus. Have a safe trip.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots!
ReplyDeleteI love your detail and dof!
And I have never seen that kind of birdie at all.
I'm not sure I've ever seen one in Virginia...and certainly not here in S. Florida. Pretty little thing!
ReplyDeleteThey look like little finches with a hair-do. Safe travels.
ReplyDeleteAwww its very sweet!
ReplyDeleteSo, that's what a titmouse looks like! So tiny! Great shots!
ReplyDeletebeautiful as always
ReplyDeleteWhat great shots! You are very talented.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, where in Missouri are you headed?
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious little bird! I just checked out all of your other posts since the last time I was here. You are such a talented photographer. I need to follow you so I don't miss anything because you inspire me as a photographer.
ReplyDeleteLove the little titmouse (or is it titmice?) not quite sure how to make it plural. Awesome photos.
ReplyDeleteVery cool! One of the best things for me when I visit my sister in Conn. is seeing these little beauties on their birdfeeders.
ReplyDeleteI am very impressed that you know the name of the bird. The birds around my house are known scientifically as brown birds, those black birds and the fat birds.
ReplyDeleteDitto Carrie - to me, it looks like a finch with a new hairstyle. So very cute! Love that little inquisitive face!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little guy! But the name still makes me giggle. I know, I'm such a teenager! Hope your weekend is good.
ReplyDeleteI love that last shot! It looks like he's looking at you and thinking "what is she doing?" LOL
ReplyDeleteOh that first shot is tack sharp and CRISP - so lovely. Have a safe journey to MO., I know you'll enjoy the company with those two on the way back!!
ReplyDeleteI love the birdies. And, yay for getting to see the kiddo!
ReplyDeleteFirst, I have to say: Yayy for Wisconsin!
ReplyDeleteheh. Sorry. It's my home state. I got a bit excited.
They don't have those there? Really? I had no idea. Great pictures!
nice bird shots Lisa, love the 3rd one. Nice job
ReplyDeleteWhat a spectacular job you did with this pretty little bird! Awesome!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little bird! Great job with the pics
ReplyDeleteI love learning the names of birds & critters when I visit here ... and am thinking about picking up some bird books to see if I can learn more about some of the birds in my area ... especially once I take my new camera over the the wetlands and catch the migrating birds. All the photos are great, but the last one will stay in my mind methinks.
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
oohhh he's so cute!!!
ReplyDeleteThey are very cute but why would anyone name them such a thing?
ReplyDeleteCUTE! We have them here in NM. The birds I miss are cardinals, bluebirds and blue jays.
