The birds I’m referring to in this post are all flycatchers that occupy woody, forest habitat; but they are very infrequently in the same place at the same time.

The Juniper Titmouse ( Baeolophus ridgwayi ) is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. You can also see my 10000 Birds post on the Oak Titmouse here. Thanks to my friend Rebecca Carrier for penning this post for 10,000 Birds on my behalf. One of my favorite bird species living by my house is the Juniper Titmouse.

Just look at this bird: Do birds get any blander?

As a youngster of 10-weeks old, it is abandoned by its parents and left to fend for itself. Each year 120,000 birds visit the island to breed from March through August in burrows that riddle the landscape.
