Blue Tit

Description:

Its colourful mix of blue, yellow, white and green make the blue tit one of the most attractive resident garden birds. Almost any garden with a peanut feeder will attract them and they readily breed in nestboxes. In winter they form flocks with other tit species and a garden with four or five at a bird table at any one time, may be feeding 20 or more.

Where to see them:
A common woodland and garden bird, also seen along hedgerows and in most places with trees and bushes.

What they eat:
Insects, caterpillars, seeds and nuts.


This beautiful Blue Tit was obviously looking for food but at the same time displaying some pretty impressive balancing skills!

  1. Hi all,

    The common blue tit has an azure blue crown and dark blue line passing through the eye, and encircling the white cheeks to the chin, giving the bird a very distinctive appearance. The forehead and a bar on the wing are white. Thanks a lot........
