a gathering of tits

[turlough]

For once I had the camera ready when there was an invasion of Long-tailed tits at the feeding station outside my window.

Hooray! Dinner is served!

Those markings are gorgeous. Do they have different winter and summer molts?

You got a great profile shot of the little guy flying to the feeder in the first picture.

Oh, they're so cute, like little toy birds!

What luck to capture them in a group like that. We have half a dozen around our feeders, but they move all the time so it can be hard to get a group shot. We call them lollipop birds - so cute! ♥

They are such pretty little birds. I've had lots of them in my garden this winter too. Ours are a little different to yours, though. Here in the UK, they have darker heads.

Ooh, nice to see these -- we don't have them here.
