The racing off-season brought me back to this. Its been at least a year or two that I'll find a speaker to crank up outside with this...works every time. Starts with the leader of the flock, then the entire flock...which in turn brings their tree mates of all kinds. Best titmouse call video ever. Thanks a ton. Too cool what it does!!
I love playing this on a speaker on my porch to attract titmice and Carolina chickadees when I’ve forgotten to fill my feeder. Within minutes I’ll have a dozen birds. Thank you!!!
I once spotted a tufted titmouse that was singing "backwards." It was similar to the "peter-peter-peter" song except that it sang the two pitches in ascending order instead of descending order, making it sound like "birdy-birdy-birdy" instead.
They are new to my neighborhood, central Texas. One has woken me up every day for a week. So, so loud. Glad I figured out what they were, now I see them constantly.
“Observe intently the birds of heaven; they do not sow seed or reap or gather into storehouses, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth more than they are?”
I thought about doing this too but apparently it’s very discouraged to play bird sounds outside for a number of reasons. Birds use their calls to communicate in a lot of ways and it can stress them out or cause problems with nesting/feeding since birds can be territorial. At any rate it doesn’t necessarily draw them to look for a feeder since they’re really just looking for the other “bird”. The recommendation for getting birds to find a feeder that I saw was to have a birdbath nearby and something to move water (electric or solar fountain in it) since they’re drawn to that and can hear/see so well.
I think the closest relative to the bluejay is the crows since they are in the same family, I would think the titmouse are pretty separate but who knows lol
