[EBB Sightings] Oak Titmice

As far as I know (which isn't very far) such a large flock of Oak Titmice is 
certainly an aberation of normal behavior. With so many recent sightings of 
cedar waxwing flocks, is mistaken identity a possiblity? If the viewer 
didn't have the benefit of binoculars, the silhouettes of a distant flock of 
birds with crests could be misleading. Other characteristics would be 
helpful. Vocalization? Feeding? Flight patterns? etc .
