Had a walk through Cogan Wood this morning to keep out of the chilly easterly. Good decision as it happens. I was kneeling down taking some pix of the Turkey Tail fungus shown, which was on a stump that is also used to put down seed for the tits & finches. Suddenly I heard a strident “pitchü, pitchü” call and looked up to see a Marsh Tit flitting about in the bushes a few feet away. It was very insistent and clearly expecting some seed, which I didn’t have. I last saw one there in Jan this year. The light was pretty poor so I was glad to get some half decent shots The Great and Blue Tits along the path thru the wood are very tame and will come and sit on your hand if you have seed.
