photography of blue tits

What makes a blue tit act in an acrobatic way?

On a snowy day, a blue tit was captured pecking at a water tap with great effort in Snowdonia, a mountainous region in northwest Wales.

It turned out that the tit was craving for food hidden in the tap, which explained its sometimes acrobatic moves.

For several days, the blue tits would perch on the tap, and the photographer who captured this moment put some peanuts in the tap that kept the birds pecking away.
