Bushtit

There was a little bird singing and flying around DRI last night. She ended up perching on a light & got her head covered in dust. She couldn't see & ended up flying into a door. Kevin (aka The Lizard Guy) took her & got her cleaned up & later identified it as a Bushtit.

OK, now whoever named this little bird was stretching his power... the preverted mind takes the name & breaks it into the 2 obvious words, but it's not a preverted thing... that's actually how you pronounce the word. From M-W.com: bush·tit. To hear the pronunciation yourself go here.

Anyway, the bird is the cutest little thing. Here is a picture of a female Bushtit.
