Blue Tit waiting to return food to its nest

This little Blue Tit was waiting patiently so it could return to its nest to bring food to its chicks. Don't worry it didn't need to wait long (see last photo).

A few pairs of Blue Tits have taken up residence in the hollow bars on the ceiling of a little shelter inside a nature preserve nearby. Below the nest is a bench and some information boards, so whenever a human was in the shelter the birds waited before bringing back the food. As soon as the humans left the birds quickly dropped of the meal and ventured out again for more food. While we couldn't see the chicks in the nests they were apparently pretty hungry, loudly chirping for more.
