R thew (Birds & wildlife)
Blue tit, adult
Lockdown has ment I've been able to spend more time with my garden birds, and I ended up (over the past year or so) encouraging the birds to feed from my hand. I've had House sparrows, great, coal and Blue tits and a Robin and breifly a few times, a starling (which was never invited, but was watching the others).
Out of the three tits, the blue tit has been the boldest and most intelligent of the three, and he has out shone the great tit in how to get my attention and knows when and where I am (which includes peering into the window and making some noise.) This has entertained my elderly neighbour, who watches from her window, and my sister, who struggles to get out has also been enjoying feeding them. Isn't nature just wonderful during stressful times!!
