Coal Tit...but why not Marsh Tit? (1 Viewer)

[JayFeatherPL]

North-eastern Poland, 20th of September, 8 am, habitat: garden near a forest, I didn't see the bird, background species: Blackbird, Tree Sparrow.

There are two types of the song: The first one can be heard from 00:00 to 00:24. The second one from 00:25 to the end of the recording.
I've got two questions:
1) Is it a Coal tit?
2) If so, why cannot it be a Marsh Tit? Because I find the songs of these two tits very similar. Especially the second song on the recording (00:24) is extremely similar to the Marsh Tit.
Yeah, Marsh Tits usually utter the "chipp-chipp-chipp / chippa-chippa-chippa" song, but they can also utter a Coal-Tit like song: listen to this song taken from a Polish guide video featuring Marsh Tit (there are also two types of song in this video). So could someone explain to me the differences?

Thanks for the answers in advance.
Cheers!

This is the typical song of Coal Tit and to my ears not even remotly sounding like Marsh Tit. Also Blackbird, House Sparrow and Firecrest in the recording.

Tree Sparrow I also didn't mention Chaffinch (probably it, doesn't sound exactly like a Great Tit).

background species: Blackbird, Tree Sparrow.

Could you please elaborate on these two tits' songs? What do you think about the songs in the video I linked? Are they more similar to the Coal Tit's song? How would I be able to tell if it's a Coal Tit or a Marsh Tit when I hear a similar song in the forest? I've always had problems with telling these two songs apart, so I hope that question is not a problem.

Right, Tree Sparrow. Both song phrases in the video are Coal Tit, a faster and a slower variant.

Wait...that's a Coal Tit? Because the video is about Marsh Tit. There are Marsh Tit photos appearing on the screen + the title of the video is "Sikora uboga" which means Marsh Tit in Polish.
If that's a mistake, maybe that's why the song of a Marsh Tit and a Coal Tit sounded very similar to me😂

yes, it's a mistake in the video. the slower disilabic song types of Marsh Tit sounds a bit more "dodgy", like this: XC893808 Marsh Tit (Poecile palustris) or this: XC798068 Marsh Tit (Poecile palustris)

Wow, thank you for the explanation. So that video caused all my confusion. By the way I think there's another mistake in a video about Whinchat...I think that it's a Common Whitethroat song and yet, they wrote it's a Whinchat. Here's the link.

that's true, Common Whitethroat (and Sedge Warbler in the back) for the Whinchat video.

Ok, thanks for the explanation. Now, I know I should rely on xeno-canto more, because these videos have some mistakes.
