I went back to Shakerley Mere this afternoon... somebody really does love the birds.
There was bird seed on every level surface by the car park... wonderful to see.
A small pile on the bench... this is where I took my images of the Robins a couple of weeks ago.
I don't know why I haven't shared it before.

...seed had also been placed in little piles on top of the gate.
Sorry I have to interrupt this post... as I am writing a Long-tailed Tit has just tapped on my window.
I have a lovely little white Goose to share... beautiful blue eyes... you will have to wait until tomorrow.

I have seen these all afternoon on my walk around Shakereley Mere.... but from a distance.
To see them up close in my garden has made my day.
Long-tailed Tit (Aegithalos caudatus)
This little Blue Tit was also enjoying my hospitality... I have a nest box... fingers crossed.

You're right, they are precious little birds, really good photos.
they are truly the cutest little birds - possibly in the world. :)
and i REALLY like that fish bench!
The only bird in the Tit family we have here is the Black Cap Chick a Dee. There are one or 2 other Chick a Dee in Alberta but not around Edmonton.
That fish bench is cool. I have never really noticed the blue in your LTT's before. Quite striking.
Great shots, Andrew. And yes, they are cute little birds.
The sculptured fish bench is wonderful! Yes lovely to see others are caring for the birds too; it’s a heartening touch of humanity. Beautiful l.t.tit – they’re divine and the weeniest little beak!! Wouldn’t that just be the icing on the cake if the they chose your garden to nest in.
Esse passarinho é muito bonito e muito delicado. Espero que eu faça um ninho no seu jardim.
Uma belíssima noite para você!
Bom fim de semana!
Beijinhos.

What a little cutie, his beak is so tiny, looking staight at him it looks like he has none! I can see why you like them so much, I would be excited also.
These are gorgeous. Now I have to go find your robins. I know yours are much different from what we see in the states.
Like major WOW! I don't blame you for not tiring from seeing these very pretty birds.
Great Shots Andrews!!!
I loved seeing those little birds on my visit! They always looked so puffy. You have a beautiful garden too!
These birds are so colorful.
Don't have anything like them where I live (mid-western United States).
Wonderful photos of them.

Hi Andrew,
What a great serie you showing us! I really love them and they are also to see in our gardens in the Netherlands and the Long-tailed Tit (dutch name: Staartmees) and the other one we call him Pimpelmees... both are so beautiful and i love the colors of them and they are so tiny... ;-))
Greetings from Holland,
Anna :-))
Andrew,how lucky are you? To have these bautiful little birds come into your garden and pose for you is fantastic.
And you made the most of it with some superb images.
Let's hope they become 'regulars' to your garden...[;o)
I would be ecstatic if this wonderful little bird was outside my window Andrew..Absolutely delightful.
Beautiful markings on that bird! Very nice photos, Andrew.
I remember that bench fom the days about ten years ago when I used to take my late parents to sit by the mere.
We had he Long-tailed Tits pass throughb the other day they rarely stay for long.
1) I have just pointed out this wonderful bench to a bench loving blogger.
2) You've made my morning. I was taking a break from dusting and hoovering, these wonderful 'portraits' were just what I needed!
3) Keeping fingers crossed!
4) Have a great Sunday!
Love the expressive eyes on the tits. So adorable.

Andrew, this is such a wonderful way to start my day, a lovely post indeed. Thank you so much. Denise xxx
The Long-tailed Tit is really cute and has the tiniest beak I've ever seen. How wonderful to have him right outside your window.
I love the fish bench!
What lovely close ups, you must be very patient and I love your header photo.
What a very cool bench! The Tit shots are lovely.
OH my gosh Andrew -- feel free to interrupt your posts any time for these beauties. (I love that you shared your "mind rambling" as beautifully as you do your actually moving around walking!)... These birds are wonderful and the way you did this post, I know exactly how you felt to glance out the window and see them!! This might be my favorite ever of all your wonderful post!
