showing off our long tails


about this time of years groups of small birds of the tit and finch families, like these long tailed tits, start to group together and forage on the berries and seeds. Long tailed tits seem to be very excitable and flit quickly from tree to tree which makes them elusive subjects to photograph. They usually give themselves away by making a high pitched squeaks (Si Si)

We have finches as well they are starting to sing the SiSi song of moving along to the South during dusk...the saddest sound of summer's end! Tara
