5 Willow Tits together at this time of the year must now be very rare in Lincolnshire. Let's hope they have a good breeding season.

Hi Stuart, Lets hope so. I was surprised to see so many and they were more interested in each other to bother about me stood there observing them! I usually only see a couple of them and one is a very regular visitor to the feeding station. It was great to see 5 at once :D
