Marsh Tit - like the Willow Tit this is now a red listed species with a greater than 50% decline nationally.
The feathers on this bird appear ruffled giving the impression of a whiter rear cheek, a feature more associated with Willow Tit.
However, the bird does show a white spot to the base of the bill, a fairly recent id feature used to separate from Willow Tit
when birds are not calling. |
