Plain gray bird with a prominent black eye and a feisty tuft of feathers on its head.
Often calls and sings from elevated perches—a rapid and rolling series of 5 to 15 syllables that sounds almost like a video game.
Small chickadee like songbird with a crest. Drab gray overall with a beady black eye that stands out on its plain face.

Nests in holes in trees created naturally or excavated by woodpeckers. Also uses nest boxes.
