The pictures are priceless.  I love the expression on mom's face and the baby with his mouth open when he sees her!  so cute!

I don't know of any comparable bird in the USA... anyone who sees one for the first time is in for a treat. We found a nest in Galway years back - tiny little thing made with spiders' webs and moss. Charming all round.

They are my favorits too,they come to visit every winter and I did have them nesting in the frontyard.
I found the Bushtit in the USA,they are small with a long tail.
