Yes. There is really something special about having a wild animal interact with you like that.

I had another Titmouse land in my hand one day. It was a bitter, bitter cold day, probably 10 below zero, and I opened the window and held my hand with a peanut out into the cold air.

It flew up onto my hand, knocked the peanut out, and settled its whole body down into the cup of my hand.

It didn’t want the peanut. It wanted to get warm. Astonishing. It stayed in my hand for about 15 seconds before it flew away.

That was special.

You could probably write a bird book with all of your experiences and pictures. I’ll think of your video next time I’m chasing a squirrel away from the bird seed. Thanks for sharing.
