Tufted Titmouses, Mitz & Catbook

Is this not the cutest bird ever? If I had to pick a favorite of the birds that visit our birdfeeder, at least for cuteness, the Tufted Titmouse would be it. Maybe the name is part of the appeal.

A perfect description of these tiny charmers ..."A little gray bird with an echoing voice ... The large black eyes, small, round bill, and brushy crest gives these birds a quiet but eager expression that matches the way they flit through canopies, hang from twig-ends, and drop in to bird feeders. When a titmouse finds a large seed, you’ll see it carry the prize to a perch and crack it with sharp whacks of its stout bill."

This time of year I have to be on constant vigil with the cats. I just recently spotted a baby titmouse, so poor Mitz has to stay inside much more than he'd prefer, just for awhile. And he's none too happy.

Speaking of which, have you heard about catbook?
Now on facebook, you can set up a profile for your cat on catbook (or dogbook for the doggies). Is there enough time in the day for all this? If I get the time to set Mitz up with his own page on catbook, he may come a'callin on your cat with a friend request ... any day now. Of course I'll first have to figure out how to set it up so it appears on my page. Will this mean Mitz needs his own email account? Personal calling cards? And what about a personal assistant? Oh wait ... I think that would be me.
