Oak Titmouse:Nondescript save for its crest, the Oak Titmouse might not wow many bird watchers at first sight.

Mates pair for life, and both partners noisily defend their territory year-round. The Oak Titmouse and the nearly identical Juniper Titmouse of the Great Basin were once treated as a single species, the Plain Titmouse.



They have a very restricted range
