A Couple of Them Were in the Cherry Blossoms
Before, I tell the wife about chasing tits, I'll show her this photo so, she doesn't get angry.
Doc and I went up north, looking for cherry blossoms and wound up chasing tits.
Whenever I come across some bird, I've never seen before, I have to research it.
Over at Avibase, they say, you could call this a Chestnut-bellied Tit.
The Handbook of Birds of the World says, they eat nuts and spiders.
At Wikipedia, I read they eat seeds and caterpillars.
At Wildlife Okinawa, I got アマミヤマガラ (Amami yamagara) the Japanese name.
The scientific name: Poecile varius amamii
The simple English name: Varied Tit
The mountain, we were on, when these tits came along was Oppadake in Nakajin Village.
Now that I know, they have tits flying around, up there, I might go do some camping at that location.
