Chickadees and a Tufted Titmouse

[AmericanGirlDollLuvr]

OMG that is so cool!I'm a huge bird fan so that is really awesome.

[Ktonrider]

It looks like they are eating out of the hand of a dead body, looooooool

[ncsteeltoe]

Nice video, annoying music!

[nddlj]

Omg, I'd love to be able to go on my front porch/backyard and feed the birds especially these small year-round birds since they don't migrate. It's like my own zoo. I do in fact live by a bird conservation site, but I have to walk along the VERY busy road (so scary!) I want to get a birdhouse/feeder soon in hopes that they will get used to my presence. Are these 'dees at your house? How long did it take for them to come to your hand?

[wakingup2010]

my chcikadees wait in the bush till I fill feeder and them tweet a happy thank you! so sweet = D

My favorite thing about chickadees is watching them pick just the right seed.  Good work getting this recorded.

[007tallguy]

your chickadees are certainly quite tame! it only took me 2 weekends to get mine to eat from my hand, but they're still pretty cautious.

[moranpack7]

love the music!!!!

[wattever333]

are you sure the person on the left is alive?

[8jbird]

They like black oil sunflower seeds. I like how they toss through until they find them or something similar.

[woodwytch172]

Fabulous!! They visit my windowsill to eat everyday, but I have yet to get them to eat out of my hand!!

[trinityworker74]

i had to turn off the sound in order to not go insane.

[loveshiskitties]

J'aime ces sortes d'oiseaux! = D Comment avez-vous leur faire confiance que vous avez de quoi nourrir à partir de votre là-bas? En outre, lorsque vous obtenez di la musique à partir de?

[danetvega06]

Trop joli ! C'est magnifique !

[exprex]

merci beaucoup!

[SIRWAF]

what does tufted mean???

[theOlLineRebel]

Tufted refers to the "tuft" on top of their heads, usually referred to as a "crest" in birds. Just like Northern Cardinals' or Blue Jays' crests.

[FriendsofMayorStrong]

Any broken skin? Brave and magical.

[gotsminez]

Chickadees and titmice are brave lil creatures.Having them feed from your hand must be a magic experience!Thanks for the vid.

[greyhoundfriend123]

Never have see a titmouse here, only one chickadee, I worry about him. He is so small and very wary.

[storrs19]

I love how Chickadees and Titmice fly in for one seed and then fly away. Seems alot of work reather than flying in and feeding for a while. I also like how they weigh each seed then choose one after careful consideration. Fascinating.

[CLAYPEEPOLEZ]

you know, once you start with very small movements and gradually get faster, you can feed them while you walk and move!

[kisaone]

little birds are so cute. they fidget like they live on coffee.

[MissMeow55]

eeek i love tufted titmouse-es O.o

[Lucidtomr]

My titmouses are more shy, but they have flown up to me, not like that tough. Good video.

[runly1]

OMG i could die from the cuteness!

[nutxlago]

Nice little things!

[daddygreenjeens]

Awesome - the tit migrates to mexico right?

[SpaceCarnivora]

No titmice don't migrate, they are one of the few birds that stay in the same place year around.

[AnimalArtHeart]

Awesome...you are so lucky!

[roamer61]

Great.

[velocikat]

WOW! That is truly something special. Fantastic video. I loved it! If I may make a suggestion when you feed them- use only black-oil sunflower or safflower seeds as opposed to a blended mix that contains white and red millet. 'Dees and titmice will not eat millet, but -as you know- they sure do love those sunflower seeds. It's a bit more expensive but well worth it in the end because you have no wasted seed. Happy birding!

[exprex]

Thanks for your nice comments. Yes, we learned from experience that sunflower seeds are best, so that's all we "serve" now.

[firelione]

Sweet video exprex. Great job!!

[MsGirlee]

this is so cool.. wow.

[bobair]

Oh,how cute I just adore those little birds. Bob

[tambo333]

cute!! Wish I could feed them out of my hand. I have a hard enough time just getting them to come to my feeder

[peregrina96]

I love this! Is that Uncle Sam on the harp?
