I love these little bluetits… there have been several families this year raised at my son’s birdfeeders.
While the parents have more vivid colours and the markings are more precise and distinct, these babies, with their adolescent colours, just look like little balls of fluff…
… and the stripes over their eyes give the impression they are wearing masks. It has been a delight to watch them grow.
Mind you, the young starlings don’t seem to approve of the competition…
