A long-tailed tit looks to be suspended in the air as it takes a drink from an icicle. The thirsty bird flew up to the icicle hanging from a tree branch, and drank the water from the bottom as it melted.<br /> <br /> The tits are known to take turns drinking from the icicles during the freezing winters. The photos were taken in sub-zero temperatures by George Swift in Hokkaido, Japan.
