Bluetit Diary    Mar 2007 (11)

 

 

Thursday 15th March, 2007

I don't know what she thinks she is doing, but the following sequence gave me the impression that Greta was doing the great tit equivalent of a yawn.  It was all over in a couple of seconds too.

She started by fluffing out her feathers, as though she was getting ready to have a nap.

Then she starts to stretch her wings ...

... up and out ...

  .. until this position where she stopped.

Then she relaxed again.  But it's still only a few minutes after mid day!
