    Default Who says Bluetits are acrobatic?

    I put out the fat balls for the Blue Tits and got Sparrows The Blue Tits have made the odd visit, but it normally the Sparrows are in charge. Annoyingly this ball is only 6 feet or so away from the window so I thought I'd get some wonderfully clear shots (close and the camera still) - but they swing too much
    The last shot is the girl looking down and tutting at their antics

    four lovely shots Louise,they are certainly acrobatic. I had read somewhere that the sparrow population was on the decline. I thought, no they're not, they are hiding in my back garden. Seems you have your share of them as well

    WHAT DO THEY MAKE FOGHORNS OUT OF?

    I certainly do - but still only half the number than when I came here a decade ago

    Very good. Louise
    What amuses me is the embarrassed looks when they don't quite do what they mean to
