Another lovely day - we set off for the Lower Burgh Meadow.
Fed the birds as we passed.
Cherry Plum - Prunus cerasifera
Daffodils
Goat Willow - Salix caprea
Gorse - Ulex europaeus
Ground Elder leaves - Aegopodium podagraria
The Long Tail Tit nest is still growing.
It is almost impossible to see from other angles.
Managed to get another bit of video.
I don't know that goat willow. We are getting well acquainted with the tit, however! How big will the nest get?
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe, but I've never found a Long-Tailed Tits nest in my life.
ReplyDeleteHi Joan, it is an enclosed nest with entrance hole, today (no photo) the roof was taking shape. Will try for a photo tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThe willow is one of our most common.
Hi David, this is the first I have seen - we were in the right place at the right time.
