Default Tufted Titmouse

I now have Tufted Titmouses building next in my backyard bluebird house. Let’s see that makes house finches out front, black capped chickadees front side, and now Tufted Titmouse in back yard. Somebody looking down on Me!

They should pay rent. No freeloading in the villages.

I was really wondering what kind of mouse? Very glad to hear that in fact, it’s a bird!

They should only be allowed if they are 55 or older.
