Hi All,
Just thought that I would share with you that a group of Long Tailed Tits have been in my garden feeding on fatballs. I have never seen them before, have you?
Kind regards

Long Tailed Tit Spotted in garden

Hi Sara, I have been lucky enough to have 8 long tailed tits on the peanuts and fat balls for the last 6 weeks. Normally they only visit for a couple of weeks and then move on so I am hoping these will stay and nest in the conifers.
Long time no e-mail. Shooting season finally ended and life getting back to normal.
Down to 13 Quail now as that 'dirty' rat decimated the ranks. Hopefully all rat proofed and secure now so cross fingers will have eggs this summer.
Kind regards
Sallie.

Hi Sallie,
Great to hear from you. I have never seen the long tailed tit before so it has been a treat for me. It would be good if they nested in your conifers. I have robins nesting in mine.
Here are some photos of the Long tailed tits that were feeding on the fat balls in my garden.
Hope you like the photos of the long tailed tit. Have you ever seen the long tailed tit?
Kind regards

Hi Sara,
the long tailed tit photos are great. They don't seem to mind humans too much and you can get quite close if you are still.
We are very lucky where we live and have over 55 different species of birds, visiting or flying over our garden - which is surrounded by farmland.
My husband and I are keen birdwatchers, so any questions re wildbirds, will be happily answered.
Regards,
SarahHow do we add photos?
