NOT MOUSEY - The Tufted Titmouse's name derives from the Old English words "tit" and "mase," basically meaning "small bird."The word "mase" eventually became obsolete and this part of the name morphed into the familiar word "mouse," a convenient switch because the quick-moving little gray bird probably reminded people of the small gray mice.
