ABC Wednesday - N
Nuts are a great garden attraction. First visitor is the Great Tit. Then the long-tailed tit. I love these sweet little birds. They usually come in pairs, and have these little fluffy bodies and long thin tails.
And where there are nuts, there are greedy squirrels!

Wonderful shots of the birds.
had to go back to April 2007 and see your son's wedding pictures. Great!
No we haven't worn tartan up till now but I do fancy trying something out. Maybes for our silver wedding in a few years?
Love the pictures of the tit mouse and the squirrel and their different approach to the feeder!
That's such a good ABC Wednesday post!
Nuts was a great choice, lovely photo's but your tale about George is the one that really gets my vote!
Great pictures. I really like the squirrel one, gave me a chuckle. They can be so persistent.
Oooh! I love all those photos, nice choice for N!
I saw a squirrel in Hyde park the other day. Maybe we were the Nuts?
I think the blue tit is Britain's prettiest bird (kind of more roborovski-ish and a little less garish than the great tit)... but what embarrassing names. I'm sure if I posted anything about tits on my blogs the Americans would just think I was making it up to be rude
Liz! You have long-tailed tits actually keeping still on your feeder! I am seriously impressed!!!
Beautiful shots of the birds. :)
Eating nuts.
The squirrel is so cute, trying to get some. ;)
Nice N post!

Hopefully the bird feeder is squirrel proof. I can just see him swinging back and forth trying his best to get a nut.
I chose N is for nummies. What's that you say? Click here to find out. – Margy
Great photos, Liz. Is this in your garden? (I almost wrote "yard" but remembered the British use "garden" for "yard") lol
Fabulous Liz,
I love those sweet little birds at your feeder too. So cute....
That last shot's simply brilliant, Liz
Wonderful shots! I really love this photos:) Fantastic N's!
We get coal-tits and longtailed-tits. I think I may have captured one of them on film this afternoon but haven't downloaded the pics yet to see - they are so quick that they are usually off and away before I switch the camera on let alone focus.
The squirrel can't manage the one on the rosebush by my window but tackle often the ones in my neighbour's back garden.
That squirrel is creative in his approach. Of course, he will find nuts. I have been encountering squirrels in the park. Two sat and watched me watch them today. Idon't have as much luck at birds.
Fabulous photos, Liz! ...Daryl

Oh,so nice, specially the big squirrel! LOL Loved thm all.
Thanks for your really sweet comment on my N post.
Take a look at the wooden box I'm giving away at the blog carnival, if you want to play! Kisses from Nydia.
Nice shots especially of the squirrel. Nuts are good ways to invite critters to your yard. I would love to do the same, but our dog would chase them away.
Terrific 'N'
I didn't get to do one this week as I had to travel to London early and didn't get home until late
