Willow Tit

Willow Tit (Poecile montanus)

Sadly Willow Tits are on the RSPB's 'red list' as their numbers have continued to decline. It is estimated that there are now only around 3400 breeding pairs in the UK. Compare that to the Blue Tit's 3.6 million breeding pairs and you can see that these little guys are thinly spread!

Many thanks as always for your kind comments this week. Have a good week-end.
