Re: Bird brains

I had to share what I witnessed this morning on the window nut feeder!

There was a blue tit pecking away at the nuts then along came a great tit who proceeded to just stare at this blue tit. You could almost hear the theme from The Good, The Bad & The Ugly playing! Anyway, the blue tit wasn't going anywhere so the great tit started rotating itself 90 degrees so it was hanging upside down as it clung to the feeder and each time it reached the upside down point, it extended its wings then slowly righted itself again. It did this non stop until the blue tit left. I've never seen anything like it! It was so funny!
