Last year when i was out and about, i discoverd this Long-Tailed Tit nest :cool: .I've never seen a nest for a Long-Tailed Tit, so this was awesome to see one, let alone find one :smile: .

At closer inspection of the shots i took, it also came apparent that the nest is made up of petals :eek: .......amazing!.

(And can i add that i DID NOT disturb the Tit in anyway)

Comments welcome

Thanks for looking :wavey:

Hi
never seen one of these before, what a nest. I guess they hide them pretty well. Good capture and well done finding it.
