There was some hustle and bustle and a bit of a hullabaloo going on where I found myself today.
There seemed to be a competition between the coal tits and the blue tits!
Let’s have a look what’s going on……

Bigaloo Blue Tit (Big for short) arrived early at the Bird Gym and felt a rush of confidence coursing through his body as he anticipated the forthcoming Tit Strength Competition!
A moment later…..

Cahoona Coal Tit joined Big Blue Tit and they stalwartly ignored each other for 2 minutes!
They were soon joined by other tits!

The teams seemed fairly even!
Big was the first to start and he went straight to the bars…

Big had to concentrate to control his nerves and nearly lost his grip….

He then managed to right himself and the competition had begun!
It didn’t take Cahoona long to begin the heckling!

“Call that a feat of strength? You’re a little pussy cat!” sneered Cahoona in an ugly manner! “Shift over and let the real winner through!”
At that moment, Big got distracted….

“What’s that?” said Big, “There’s fresh seed been put out? I’m on my way!”

Big enjoyed the light refreshments.
Of course, Cahoona took advantage of this and took his place immediately!

“On course to win!” said Cahoona through gritted beak and already on his 45th pull up!
Rita Robin heard the noise and came to take a look….

Rita Robin could barely believe her eyes at the energy that the tits expended in competing with each other, especially considering the hard winter they were encountering!
And with a flounce and a chirrup……

“Thank goodness that we Robins aren’t competitive. What a silly bunch of tits!” said Rita!
Off she flew!
And That’s All!
See Ya xx
