The Western United States and high parts of Mexico, and occurs from Vancouver, through the Great Basin, lowlands and foothills of California to southern Mexico and Guatemala.

CALL: Utters short contact calls, “pit” or harder “chip” varying in frequency and volume. These calls can be given singly or in long series.

When the bird is excited, it gives loud, nasal “stit”.

They also give a high-pitched “see-see-see” or “sisisisi” in anxiety, if one bird is separated from the flock.

The alarm call is a protracted “silililililili” often given in chorus by several birds, and during about two minutes, especially when an avian predator approaches.

Between them at roost, they communicate with quiet twitter and soft contact calls.

They do not have a territorial song.

NEST: Both male and female build an elongated gourd-shaped pendent nest and it is placed within a fork or between two parallel twigs.

They are social outside of the breeding season, typically foraging in small flocks.

They are usually very active when feeding, climbing and flitting quickly through foliage and branches of vegetation, probing for insects.

They are often seen hanging upside down as they forage.

The oldest known Bushtit was a female, and at least 9 years, 1 month old.
