Ratel's photos #298 Forest Birds-235

The long-tailed tit or long-tailed bushtit (Aegithalos caudatus)

In my last post about these birds, I told there how they build a nest. There the bird was sitting on the blank of the future nest, she pressed the material to become thicker.
And next to this place flew the second bird, they were looking for material for the nest.
The fact is that these titmouses do not have sexual dimorphism, and therefore it is not clear whether this is a male or a female.

However, they built a nest together.
During the nesting period they are very secretive, and some birders are even sure that there are no birds in their forests at this time. But it is not. And my photos confirm this. I have already met these cute birds in the summer, and even watched them with chicks.
