#longtailedtits — Public Fediverse posts

We're clockwise. To be precise, one of the several long-tailed tits visiting here for food is working really hard at nest-sitting and shows a clockwise bend in the tail. UK.
Here's my citizen science for a quiet Sunday.

Long-tailed tits are flying balls of fluff. These tiny birds might just be our cutest bird.

Here's something a little different from me - I've been wanting to do some nature based artwork for a while now, & I think I might have found my style for this with some artwork I made into family holiday greeting cards in December :)

Just been visited by a large family of long tailed tits. The collective name for these birds is, apparently, a ‘vollery’. This word doesn’t somehow capture the complete chaos of a long tail tit visit. I prefer ‘flurry’.

Here are two juveniles on our fat slab feeder. Looking forward to seeing them when their adult feathers grow out. #birds #aves #longtailedtits

For #LongTailedTits, it really does take a village https://phys.org/news/2025-05-tailed-tits-village.html paper by Jennifer Morinay et al.: https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1365-2656.14237

"about 70% of long-tailed tit nests are destroyed by predators every year... By early May, the season is too advanced to re-nest, and if a pair has lost their brood they give up for the year... they often become helpers, moving to another nest and assisting... Around half of all broods have helpers, typically just one or two, but up to eight at a single nest."

There is a little bit of Peter Parker in all #LongTailedTits

The #LongtailedTits are already flying around in pairs, gathering nesting material for their nest of moss and lichen...
