That is a lot of Great tits all together, they are common visitors to my bird table and feeders, but I rarely see more than two. Long tail tits are the ones I see in flocks, and I am told that they inform each other, and other sorts of tits, where there is a food source, it fascinated me that they would let other species know. I also see blue tits, which use the nesting box, and the occasional willow tit or marsh tit (It is quite difficult to tell those last two apart). Last year there was a storm mid season and the nesting box was knocked off the fence by the wind, falling on some bricks underneath. I replaced it and tied it on securely with a length of string and the adult bird was back within minutes looking in the box. They went on to successfully raise their family, I was amazed. My brother in law made me a second box for my birthday, so I shall see what develops next year. I am thinking of making an open box for the robin (Erithacus rubecula, not to be confused with all the other red breasted species that Englishmen have called 'Robin' as they traveled the world.), he really is a favourite, diving right under my feet to pick up insects when I am working and disturbing the ground or dead leaves.View attachment 86443I had collected a lot of walnuts from the nearby forest in October, unfortunately these walnuts turned out to be quite hard. It is difficult to separate whole nuts, and I decided to feed the birds from the nearby forest. Well, I was lucky, today I managed to photograph a few Parus major.
