Last evening in the gentle rays of a stunning sunset came 3 LTTs to the bird bath. All had drinkies but failed to avail themselves of the opportunity to bathe :shrug:.
Can't please 'em all all of the time :unsure:.

3 LTTS again this evening. Must be the same 3 as the other day. They must remember.

This morning 5 LTTs were drinking.
Beginning to realise just what a magnet the new birdbath is.
Conversely, will it be less so when the rain arrives? At the moment I'm getting birds in unprecedented numbers and of types I rarely see.

Birds are finding that chances to drink water and even bathe in it are in short supply at present. Until the rains return expect there to be a steady queue. :nod:

I was totally in awe of the bunch of these beautiful little birds that found my feeder today :clap:
It was a bunch of them, around 10 maybe, hard to count as they move so quick, and I think they are juveniles :D
Couldn't get a good picture of them, these are the better ones:

Beautiful! :love:

LTTs usually visit in family groups so it is quite likely there were juveniles in their number. Always welcome visitors. :nod:

Had five LTTs in the garden this morning, munching away at suet cake. First for several years I would say.
