RE: The first visitors to the bird feeder this year
These are sweet birdie shots :) The great tit is a very common bird to come to the feeder here in my country too. I love watching them feeding on the seeds :)
Thanks! It's very common here as well, but that's good, because it's a nice bird. Unfortunately a lot of them have been infected by the poxvirus this year, so we have a lot of diseased ones here now. I haven't seen this before, but it's pretty common this year..
Wow, I have no idea if this is happening here too. Sorry to hear that :( They are beautiful birds...
Yeah, they really are. Luckily it's not that terrible of a virus; a lot of them will likely survive unless we get extreme cold soon.
