Michael,
Nothing surprises me when it comes to titmouse calls and songs. One time I
thought I heard a Great-crested Flycatcher, but then I saw a titmouse
sitting on top of our feeder making that same sound. I'm not sure I know
exctly what "TEE ker, TEE ker, TEE ker," sounds like but I bet a titmouse
can do it.

While we were at Bryan Park this morning, we heard a sound like "TEE
ker, TEE ker, TEE ker," slow and evenly spaced. The suspect in question
ended up being a Tufted Titmouse (actually, there were two of them doing it,
apparently calling to each other), but none of us had ever heard that
particular Titmouse sound before. It wasn't at all like the usual "peter
peter peter." Neither Kaufmann's nor National Geographic mentioned a call
like that (ditto Stokes and Sibley). Anyone else ever hear a sound like that
before from a Titmouse?
