Long Tailed Tits

Every now and then we have a visit from the local long tailed tit gang. We had one yesterday. I was out feeding the birds when the trees and bushes around me were suddenly crowded with these....

....beautiful little birds. Not only are they very pretty to look at, but one can't help but love the cheerful, chattering....

....socialisation that goes on.

At first there seemed to be half-a-dozen or so of them, moving along the hedge that separates us from the playing field, but....

....they just kept coming, more and more of them so, after I'd counted about thirty, I gave up.

Their visits bring such joy, but they're too rare. Perhaps their numbers suggest they've had good breeding year so we'll have the pleasure of their company again soon.
