Lesson in Teamwork

No awaydays necessary for this pair.




A useful human holds out food on his hand. One coal tit flutters above then grabs a morsel; in doing so he manages to knock some onto the ground below. Another coal tit is watching very close by and swoops down to pick up the fallen treat. All takes a couple of seconds. Shortly afterwards they do the same again. This is repeated 6 times watched by robin, great tit and chaffinch admiring the presumption. But will they learn?  Too late. The arm gets tired.
