[SBB] Bush Tits

["mary keitelman" <[[email protected]]>]

Bush Tits flew in on a sunny afternoon on the deck.  They foraged and then 
one female landed on a Photinia twig in the sun. Another, male, perched on 
the other of the twig. Then another male landed next to the male. And 
another male flew in next to the female. Others flew in, until the gap 
between them on the twig was closed, and there were about 9 Bushtits on the 
twig. All faced in one direction, except one that was reversed. One or 
another would fly off and when another came in, it would insert itself 
between two birds that were right next to each other rather than take an 
empty space at the end.  They disbanded and foraged for half an hour and 
then regrouped, this time with a dozen, on the twig, in the sun!  After 15 
minutes or so, they flew off.
