That was such an interesting read, I will look with even greater admiration at the lovely coal tits now. Fascinating, thank you Andy.

Enjoyed the read. Several years ago we had a coal tit which was caching black sunflower seeds in my socks which were hung out to dry after washing. It was strange putting your toes in to wear them and finding the seeds. It took me a while to find how it what was actually happening.

I enjoyed reading about the winter habits of the coal tits. Great photos also. Thanks.

This is absolutely fascinating. I had no idea that birds stashed their food for later! Thank you so much for sharing.

PS. Long tailed tits are also one of my favourites.
