Nest of Long-Tailed Tit

The nest of the Long-Tailed Tit.
Made from cobwebs and lichen! Lined with feathers.
There is a group of Long-Tailed tits who make a racket bouncing around the trees around my house.
They're like little round balls of feathers, with very long tails!
Despite them coming round to feed, I've never managed to see a nest. This one from Whitby Museum is the nearest I've come.
