    I thought for sure this had to have the saturation cranked up (very common when people post colorful birds), but the pic is straight from the Macauly Library and, if anything, underplays the fine details of the colors due to the image degradation.

    Look I love warbling tits as much as the next guy, but ornithologists are the horniest scientists in the game.

          And it’s highly effective!

          Predation accounts for a relatively low rate of nest failure: only 34% compared to an average of 80% for birds in similar habitats. This may be enabled by their well camouflaged nests, or simply the lack of local predators.
