Great Tit

[gemini]

Hi Everyone

I'm really enjoying taking these bird photos. I think I'm right with the ID of this as a Great Tit - please correct me if I'm wrong.

There were a pair of these I saw while out on a walk today, looks like they're nesting

Please let me know what you think

Yep. Great tit. Busy nest building by the looks of it!

Nice shots. I like the natural surroundings and the fact that they are collecting stuff for the nest.

these are good Alison, worth going back when they are feeding.

Thanks Jo, they were both very busy to-ing & fro-ing, is there a difference between the male & female with these do you know

Nice shots. I like the natural surroundings and the fact that they are collecting stuff for the nest.

Thanks Keith, it's the first time I've taken any photos of these so to get them whilst nest-building is a bonus

these are good Alison, worth going back when they are feeding.

Thanks retired, I might just do that, any idea how long you think it would be for them to lay eggs & hatch,etc
