Hooked on Chickadees (FZ150)

Yuki, The longtail Tit although quite dull in colour compared to some other Tits is a beautiful little creature, they are not really rare as such but they tend to stay in groups so if you see one land nearby you can be sure there will probably be another six or seven along very soon & they have a very distinctive chirp which you often hear before you see them,

There nests are a work of art, a sort of ball of soft materials which are often in a little comunity built into the finer branches of trees,

I havnt really got a very good shot of a long tail Tit as yet but I have included a couple I took before christmas, Thanks, Jon.
