Bridled Titmouse

Baeolophus wollweberi

Length: 5 in. (13 cm )

Conspicuous and noisy, the Bridled Titmouse is a common species in pine-oak woodlands and riparian areas of the southwest. Small family groups often become the nucleus around which many other species form mixed foraging parties in the middle and upper levels of the forest. It feeds mainly on insects gleaned from leaves and vegetation. The nest is in a natural tree cavity.

The four-digit banding code is BRTI.
