I spent today at the London Wetlands. As their website says, it is an urban oasis and definitely worth a visit. One of the many birds I saw there was this handsome Blue Tit. It was checking out the interior of a little birdhouse. I initially thought that it was feeding little ones inside, but apparently it's too early for that. According to the internet, late May is the time for Blue Tit chicks to hatch.
