Bird News from Mike Friel
A sunny afternoon walk in nearby woods led to an area of the track where I always see a variety of tits. This time, however, I was surprised to see bright yellow, and there, showing some curiosity from the mid-level branches, were at least three juvenile Yellow-bellied Tits. I watched and photographed them for over six minutes, and then they went on their way. It was exciting to see such rare visitors, especially as this was a first for me.
