Long-tailed tits (Aegithalidae)
Not selected for Google Earth [?] - ID: 86834872
The long-tailed tit is easily recognisable with its distinctive colouring, a tail that is bigger than its body, and undulating flight. Gregarious and noisy residents, long-tailed tits are most usually noticed in small, excitable flocks of about 20 birds. Like most tits, they rove the woods and hedgerows, but are also seen on heaths and commons with suitable bushes. From the RSPB

Very nice capture indeed. They are not very common here in the north, and our birds (caudatus) do not have that stripe on their head at all. Did they talk to you? I just read it can be very unforgettable experience to hear it.

sixten_imgs ~ I am pretty deaf ~ so do not often get to enjoy the songs of the birds ~ just now and then I can ~ In Spring they usually make the most noise and in the very early morning it can be lovely, but no I do not know the song of the long tailed tit :~( Maybe this Spring I will hear them as in all three separate places that I feed the birds there are some to be seen ~ Best wishes ~ nick

Erik van den Ham ~ I think that they appear a little scruffy compared to Blue Tits, but I too love the way they dash about together in little groups ~ The sounds mostly elude me I'm afraid ~ All the best ~ nick
