By: Paul Miranda

The Tufted Tit Mouse is a little light gray bird with large black eyes, a round bill, and a bushy crest that looks like a Mohawk. This birds Latin name is baeolophus bicolor, it's English name is the Tufted tit mouse and it got its name in England because the word tit means small. This bird is very acrobatic but flutters a lot when it flies. They also flock with other birds such as chickadees , nuthatches, and woodpeckers. The diet of the tit mouse is rather simple it eats bugs such as caterpillars, spiders, grasshoppers, etc. It also eats seeds , nuts, berries, and acorns. The habitat of this animal is suburban areas or the woods. The status of this bird is at a least concern. This is the Tit mouse.
