When Non Birding Bill and I do holiday cards, we usually take one of my photos and he doctors them up. I sent him a few and the above was one of our finalists. Just cracks me up the way the hat sits jauntily on the crest.
I thought it was a good cleanse after the recent news.
Eeee one of my favorite birds WITH A SANTA HAT. Yes yes, titmice are common elsewhere, but in Montreal, they’re SPECIAL. We had one at the feeder this year and I was so excited!
My day is made!
Move over, Mad Bluebird!
Cute little hat…LOL
Hee hee! Fantastic.
So very jaunty. Oh, yessssss.
LOL; All I can think of is King Julian from Madagascar “I’ve got a crown, It’s a very nice crown! Is it still on my head?”
Oh, I am still giggling… That’s a great Christmas outfit on one of my favorite birds!
So, after you catch the birds and band them, you put hats on them, too? How do you get them to stay on – hatpins?
