During winter, Bushtits came in a big bunch. Spring and summer they are in a lot smaller group of 2-5, busy nesting and raising the young. At the end of summer, they are again back to a big bunch of 12-15 or more. Lately I notice they are followed by a hummingbird to visit my backyard. Or other times a hummingbird is chasing a bushtit.
When they come in a bunch, some have to wait for his turn at somewhere else like this one perched on a blue Texas sage.
"Hi, I'm back with a lot of friends."
Yesterday they discovered a bird bath, so everyone was curious to check it out.
"Let me wade here.... Water is not very cold."
"How many are we now? Everyone is here?"
