Titmouse

Tufted Titmouse: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, October 2025 — Just pretty pictures of a fairly plain little bird…but if they do not wake a bit of delight (bordering on awe) in you then I do not know what might? I take no credit for them (I was just blessed to be in the right place at the right time with a decent camera in my hands), but I am happy to be able to share them with you this glorious Sunday sabbath. It is a miracle not only that such beings exist, on a bright day in Southern Maine, with the foliage turning behind them, but that we have been given to ability to appreciate them and the day.

    Another fun fact – birdies like the titmouse are living relatives of the dinosaurs, including the fearsome tyrannosaur . . .
