LTT Revisit

Another visit to the Long-tailed Tit nest building site revealed that construction is well underway. 

All of these images were taken from a good distance from the site using a long lens, so as not to disturb or distract the birds in anyway.

The site of the nest is in a safe location and unlikely to be disturbed by unwanted attention.

Long-tailed Tit nests are of a very intricate dome construction made of small twigs and lichen. 

From what I have observed in the past, this takes at least three weeks to construct.

The first clutch of eggs are laid from late March to early April.
