Since I've been having a steady flow of visitors looking for Blue Tits (although they quite possibly were looking for another type of tit) I'll post a quick update about the little ones : Today as I stepped outside, I heard lots and lots of chatter coming out of the nesting cage, and mom and dad were flying in and out of the cage all the time. It seems these little creatures are quite hungry. Now I know why :

Why are the Blue Tits yellow?

Good question Ash, and to be honest, I don't know. These little ones will change color when they grow older, but now that you mention it, the parents don't seem all that blue to me either. Maybe you should ask a real birdwatcher?
