The Grace of the Tufted Titmouse Classic Round Sticker

The tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor) is a small, charming songbird easily recognisable by its prominent crest. Measuring about 5.5 to 6.3 inches (14 to 16 cm) in length, this bird has a compact, rounded body and a sturdy, short bill. Its plumage is primarily soft grey on the upperparts, with a white face and underparts. A distinctive feature is the black patch just above its beak, contrasting with its light-coloured face. The wings and tail display subtle blue-grey hues, adding to its overall elegant appearance. Tufted titmice often show a hint of rusty or peach-coloured flanks, especially visible in good lighting.
