This tufted titmouse came into care at the Vermont Institute of Natural Science after becoming orphaned. As a nestling, a bird is incapable of raising itself, so the trained staff here at VINS steps in to help out. We successfully raised this titmouse, and released him back into the wild last week. Enjoy a video of this little bird out in our songbird aviary devouring some meal worms.
Enjoyed! Too cute! Thanks Meghan.
