Having said previously on this project, that the Long Tailed Tit appears to visit 'en-masse,' this morning, this solo bird was all alone, flitting between the fat balls (and being bullied by the Starlings), and the peanuts.
We have only seen the Long Tailed Tits since last summer; have never had the pleasure before; I hope they continue to visit, they are quite gorgeous
He is a beautiful bird! So you leave the peanuts in their shells for this feeder?! I expect it takes a lot of effort to finally get to the nuts inside the shells. Our squirrels would tear the feeder down if I did that. Smile.
@louannwarren No, the nuts are out of the shells; they're like that when they come out of the bag, dark brown; what you can see, with the white, is where the birds (and the squirrles) have been nibbling.
