Gosh, I love these birds so much. I would love to have a few migrate across the pond.
A beautiful behavioral image of this sweet nest builder JJ!

OMG. A first of the Feathered-beaked killer Tit? Took it the nesting material from KFC bins?
An unusual but also stunning behavioural capture of this LTT.

Well done getting the focus where it belongs, on the eye, while the bird was still there! That beakful looks quite like Long-tailed Tit feathers. (Just read jb's comment, we seem to agree that something’s up hereo_O). Brilliant work JJ.
