Long-tailed tits


There is a patch of woodland near my home where a small flock of long-tailed tits regularly feed. Since they are so small, move quickly and tend to stay within the tree canopy, they have been tricky to photograph.

However, last Saturday, a trio of them paused on a tree long enough for me to take some pictures. I was even able to see their red eyelids, which was a first for me.
