long tailed tit

These little floof balls are some of the cutest wee birds we get in the UK.

I've only really seen them a handful of times. My parents have always spent a lot of money on feeding the birds, but for some reason the long tailed tits have stayed away, until now!

My mum told me they've seem them a couple times lately, and on Christmas day my time helping in the kitchen was rewarded with great fews of a flock of 6 of these wee guys, who came and went all day. :-D
