Although their flight speed has not yet been officially documented, their twisting techinque make these birds unremarkable fliers.

They more than make up for this with their ability to balance in the flimsiest of reed blades in the wetlands they occupy.

The sad thing about these floofiest puff balls is they only live shortly

Bearded Reedlings have a short lifespan of 3 to 6 years in the wild. They prefer to live their days hanging with other Reedlings and looking for their favorite insects to munch on.

These birds are also known to be affectionate pets should you choose to domesticate them. However, they require a large space to fly freely whenever they want making it cruel to keep them cooped up in a cage for too long.

During their mating season from March to September, male Bearded Reedlings will show some agression towards another male of their kind when competing for the attention of a female Bearded Tit.

The Bearded Reedling’s dinstinctly adorable look will always be memorable but the most remarkable thing about them is still their ability to do the split exquisitely!

You don’t have to be a bird enthusiast to see the appeal of these fluffy Bearded Reedlings. They are undeniably cute and they are definitely a must-see gift from nature.
