Acrobatic long-tailed tit with a suet pellet

The snow is rumoured to melt within a couple of days. The birds will be happier, although the many long-tailed tits which have been visiting our feeders won't be concerned. They seem to have been behaving as if the cold weather was quite normal for them. 

I counted twelve gathering close to the suet feeder at one point, taking it in turns to grab the pellets before flying off to the adjacent pussy willow tree to eat the food, in this case by hanging upside down from the branch. They really are tiny birds and apparently have only half the weight of a robin.
