@shiphaybirder.bsky.socialWith the colder nights over the last week these 7 Long-tailed Tits Aegithalos caudatus have been roosting together in a huddle. These social birds pass the locations of their favourite roost sites through the generations. I first saw them roosting here in 2011. Buckfastleigh, Devon #birds

Show PostIt’s hardly moved from those same trees on the opposite bank to the path in 3 days now. I didn’t find it a lady that walks the lakes regularly and using Merlin texted me asking if it we’re possible there was a YBW there after Merlin picked it up - I said yes - but would check it!- bingo!
