Baeolophus
Baeolophus is a genus of birds in the family Paridae. Its members are commonly known as titmice. All the species are native to North America. In the past, most authorities retained Baeolophus as a subgenus within the genus Parus, but treatment as a distinct genus, initiated by the American Ornithological Society, is now widely accepted.[1]

gollark: Interesting, I might be able to use this.
gollark: cc-web-term?
gollark: It runs a CC instance on the server, and connects via websocket to the client. Though currently it just displays that test image and there's nothing happening on the backend.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Oh, and to actually connect this to a terminal, which will *probably* need to wait for CraftOS-PC raw mode.
