[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A pair of Long-tailed Tits (Aegithalos caudatus ssp. caudatus) building a nest. The nest is well hidden and even though the species is conspicious not many people have seen the nest. In the current Spring I have found four territories near my house, but only one nest, the one in the photo. Both female and male build the nest. The North-European nominate subspecies has all white head.

Hola Pentti.
Un curioso pajarillo que se camufla a la perfección con los tonos del musgo en el árbol.
Un cordial saludo, Jl.
