I've been hearing a lot of "peter, peter, peter" at the log cabin, so then I just figured the Tufted Titmouse was telling me his name. So here's Peter. The other day he thought it was funny to bounce off my head while I was trying to hand feed the chickadees. Perhaps Peter would like to eat out of my hand?!
*P.S. I am headed to the cabin this weekend and will catch up with you on Sunday. Sorry if I've missed some of your blogs lately, it's been crazy at my house since I've been helping my husband with his company as well as managing my own.

Love it Shelley!
Don't know what I would do if I didn't hear that "Peter, Peter" everyday.
Aww, he is quite handsome!
I just love their "Peter peter peter" call.
I do love hearing them call out in the morning.
Have a great time at the cabin.
Yup that's his name all right. I have a Peter and a Peterette here. I have guests who come to see and hear them as Titmice are very rare in this state.
I have never seen one, much less this close...so thank you for posting that photo....it was great!!!
Excellent Shelley.
He is a very cute guy with very nice colors. I love it too. A good picture.
Sweet photo of Peter! Wishing you a grand weekend.
We have Tufted calling out "Peter" also. My fav's are the Cardinals--'chipping' at me!!!!
Have a great weekend at the log cabin.
Hugs,
Betsy
What a delightful close up of 'Peter'.. Their call is so loud and happy, you can always pick it out... Signs of Spring!

It is nice to see this beautiful bird. They do want to become familiar.
They are very friendly little brids. I have been so close I could touch one.

We call them "Tuffy" ...my hubby says I remind him of one...that I'm a Tuffy! I think that's a compliment. : )
I think we all get away from the pc a bit more as the temps warm up!
Hope Peter didn't poop right as he bounced off your head. I will watch for that bouncing trick around my yard.

We don't get these tufted titmice here.I did not know they called out their name. Great picture.
Peter is adorable!!! Have fun at the cabin!
He looks as if he's turned towards the sound of your voice and is about to say, "Did you call me?" :c) Have a wonderful weekend!
Now that is one awesome pose.
How much did you pay pete for that?
Peter is very cute.
Great shot of Peter :-) How strange...the ones here are named Peter, too! Enjoy your cabin!
Peter is a cutie! I have a cardinal that is always telling me his name is Jimmy.
Hi Shelley, I'm having trouble with blogger reader showing my updated posts. I just posted a photo of my friend's grandbaby and she will be so sad if there are only a few comments. If you go to blogger reader, and click on Nalley Valley rather than the last title listed, you should get the updated post. Thanks you.
What a cute picture! Those little birdies sure have a lot of personality, don't they?
I love Peter! Can't believe he tapped your head! That would be so cool!
That guy is just too cute! So is the bird butt above! :)
Wonderful characters these titmouses!
Cheers, Klaus
Great Peter Shelley.
Peter has one adorable face!
He is saying, "Why don't you take a picture, it will last longer." HA!
Shelly, I love all of the different types of feeders that you have. How do you keep the squirrels from bothering them? I have a couple of feeders that are truly squirrel proof, but the basket style sure would be great for a mix with peanuts and such that so many of the birds love.
