Une mésange huppée perchée sur une fine branche de tamaris dénué de feuilles, sur fond vert foncé. Les branches de l'arbre sont fines et élancées et ont une jolie teinte brun rougeâtre. L'oiseau nous montre son arrière-train et cache sa tête derrière une branche, on voit juste son bec et un bout de huppe apparaitre.

She likes the moss💚

Une mésange huppée, vue d'assez loin, perchée sur une branche de jeune pin maritime, entourée d'autres branches toutes ornées de pompons d'aiguilles vert tendre. Elle est penchée vers l'avant, ailes entrouvertes et queue levée. Elle tient dans son bec une sorte de petit papillon aux ailes blanc crème déployées.

𝗣𝗶𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗘𝗻𝗴): A Crested Tit on a branch in the drizzle with its tuft partially raised, perched facing forward. We see mainly its breast and its head turned to our right. In the background, out of focus among the raindrops, a rowan branch with a cluster of berries.

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝗰𝗶𝗼́𝗻 (𝗘𝘀𝗽): Un herrerillo capuchino posado en una rama bajo la llovizna, con la cresta parcialmente levantada, mirando hacia adelante. Vemos principalmente su pecho y cabeza girados hacia la derecha. En el fondo, entre las gotas de lluvia, se adivina, desenfocado, una rama de serbal con un racimo de bayas.

The crested tits have become regulars around here.

A small crested songbird perched on a thin twig, its gray and beige feathers softly lit against a smooth, blurred background, showing fine details in the plumage and a calm, but alert posture.

The Crested Tit — small bird, serious hairstyle

While walking through the Oisterwijkse Bossen, we noticed movement among the dead leaves on the forest floor. At first glance, it looked like just another tit hopping about. But then I saw it. The mohawk. A tiny, unapologetic punk haircut in the middle of the forest.

This was a Crested Tit — Lophophanes cristatus (Kuifmees in Dutch). A species I don’t encounter often, and even more rarely get the chance to photograph. Crested tits are small, fast, and prefer staying low, close to tree trunks, roots, and bushes. Which makes perfect ecological sense in a forest… and perfect photographic chaos.

They forage by flicking through leaf litter, bark, and moss, searching for insects and seeds. That behavior kept this bird constantly in motion, darting between shadows, branches, and undergrowth. Capturing it meant reacting fast and accepting technical compromises.

Light was limited, and depth of field still mattered. I shot this handheld with my Canon EOS 5D Mark IV at f/6.3, 1/250s, ISO 3200. The shutter speed is about as slow as I dare go handheld with a moving subject, but it allowed me to freeze the bird while keeping enough light to preserve feather detail. Noise can be managed; motion blur cannot.

What I love about this image is not just the rarity of the species, but its character. That crest isn’t decorative — it’s communication, posture, attitude. Evolution has a sense of humor, and sometimes it gives it a mohawk.

A frequent visitor to our peanut feeders is the crested tit, one of the more flamboyant characters to grace our garden! The colours of the plumage on this particular specimen were much more vibrant than others seen in previous years, or perhaps it was the sun's rays helping it put on a show.

A small bird hangs upright onto the side of a peanut feeder basket. The bird has a white head, black beak and black crest pointing out behind it, and black markings extending from the black eye horizontally, which the curve around and drop down to form what looks like an ear. A black collar separates the face markings from the body, which is a pale buff colour on the chest and a darker shade of light brown on the back and wings.

Picture of a small crested member of the tit family of birds, hanging onto a peanut feeder, its head turned to face right. The feeder is hanging on a bough of a leafless, medium-sized, shrubby bush. The boughs are covered with different types of lichen and moss. The background shows a blurred hedgerow of deciduous wood.

Schon etwas vorgearbeitet, aber psst! noch geheim. 🤫 Looking forward to this year‘s last bird! #birdwhisperer #WorkInProgress #CrestedTit #Haubenmeise #kleineKunstklasse

A a piece of paper with watercolor swatches on top of the now hidden watercolor sketch of a Crested Tit

🇺🇸 The crested tit (Lophophanes cristatus) is a small and striking songbird native to coniferous forests across Europe, especially in central and northern regions. Measuring about 11 to 12 centimeters in length with a wingspan of up to 20 centimeters, it weighs around 10 to 13 grams. Its most distinctive feature is the black-and-white crest that gives the bird its name, along with a black bib and pale brown back. Crested tits are active and curious, often seen hopping among pine branches searching for insects, spiders, and seeds. They are resident birds, staying in their forest territories year-round—even during harsh winters—often joining mixed flocks of other tit species for foraging.

🇩🇪 Die Haubenmeise (Lophophanes cristatus) ist ein kleiner, auffälliger Singvogel, der in den Nadelwäldern Europas beheimatet ist – besonders in Mittel- und Nordeuropa. Sie wird etwa 11 bis 12 Zentimeter lang, hat eine Flügelspannweite von bis zu 20 Zentimetern und wiegt rund 10 bis 13 Gramm. Ihr markantestes Merkmal ist die schwarz-weiße Federhaube, die ihr den Namen gibt, zusammen mit dem schwarzen Kehlfleck und dem hellbraunen Rücken. Haubenmeisen sind lebhafte und neugierige Vögel, die zwischen Kiefernzweigen umherhüpfen und nach Insekten, Spinnen und Samen suchen. Sie sind Standvögel und bleiben das ganze Jahr über in ihrem Revier – selbst im Winter, wenn sie sich oft gemischten Meisenschwärmen anschließen.

Une mésange huppée de trois-quarts face, la tête tournée face à l'objectif et la huppe dressée. Elle est agrippée au rebord d'une coupelle grise contenant de l'eau. La coupelle est posée sur des caillebottis striés et surplombe un buisson aux feuilles vert foncé. Dans le fond, derrière le buisson, quelques feuilles sont éclairées par le soleil et prennent une teinte vert jaune lumineuse.

Crested Tit

After the recent storm, we visited the woodland to check on the feeders and the trees. Thankfully no issues.

As I had my camera, we set up a shot and within a minute I had some images in the bag. Amazing!

Email me if you're interested in spending a day photographing these birds. Bookings being taken now, until March.
