Black-Crested Titmouse

 The Black-Crested Titmouse could be a mirror image of the Tufted Titmouse in its behavior and appearance.   It shows little fear of humans.  They also does not hesitate to use another nest.

The Black-crested and the Tufted Titmice interbreed in a north-south 30 to 60 mile wide belt from Oklahoma through central Texas.   Their offspring show variably  intermediate shades of dusky crests and gray or brownish foreheads  which makes it hard to assign them to a species.
They are found in oak or other woodlands along watercourses, open tracts with scattered trees

DesertDale took the photo last year, on our trip to Florida.
Enjoy.
