You can usually hear the Long Tailed Tits before you see them, but this time they were joined by some Blue Tits and even what I think is a Coal Tit.

  

 

The Coal Tit seems to be one of the few birds that can successfully get the seeds from this particular feeder. It stays just long enough to grab a seed, before flying into the undergrowth to eat it.

The RSPB say it’s a regular visitor to peanut feeders, but in our garden it likes to sit in the ornamental quince tree, and have a dip in the bird bath every now and then.
