What's flying near you?

A few days ago I found a very young long tailed tit in the fruit cage. Before I could discover which particular hole it had got in by, it had fluttered around a bit then popped its head through the soft mesh roof and flew away. This morning, doing the rounds to check nothing was in the cages, furry or feathered, I noticed a flock of long tails in the trees and several 'strap hanging' youngsters outside on the fruit cage net. I walked up to politely tell them not to attempt to go in, I didn't want to frighten them too much. No chance of that. I had quite a long conversation with at least two, face to face and with much twittering. They gave up eventually when the troupe of at least 15 decided to decamp, but I don't think they listened to a word I said, they were too busy gossiping.

I traipsed up to the gh in my nightie, for the morning forage and on my return to the house I heard a big fluttering. I thought nothing of it, assuming it was a robin escaping fom the feeding station by our bedroom window. I trundled indoors ready to pop back into bed with a coffee and found the fluttering was now inside.

   

A great tit must have been investigating the window when I frightened him into the bedroom.  He wasn't too frantic, so we opened the windows and left him to find his way out.
That'll be an adventure to tell his grandkids.
