Basically, when something is smol, we all become the Abominable Snowman in those Looney Tunes shorts.

Now that being the case there is a species of bird that falls into this category with the greatest of ease. A bird that is very much worth appreciating when using this word.

This bird is a tiny ball of cotton known as the Long-Tailed Tit.

Long-tailed tits are quite common throughout Europe and Asia, and their tails are only really “long” in relation to their tiny bodies. An adult only grows to be about 13-15 cm (5-6 in) long, and that’s including the tail, which counts for as much as half that length.
