Description

The Blue Tit, Cyanistes caeruleus, is a 10.5 to 12 cm (4.2 to 4.8 inches,) long passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. It is a widespread and common resident breeder throughout temperate and subarctic Europe and western Asia in deciduous or mixed woodlands. It is a resident bird; i.e., most birds do not migrate. This is a common and popular European garden bird, due to its perky acrobatic performances when feeding on nuts or suet. It swings beneath the holder, calling tee, tee, tee or a scolding churr.The song period lasts almost all the year round, but is most often heard during February to June. These woodland birds normally eat insects. However, during the year 1929, this British titmouse developed a remarkable new appetite -- for stolen milk! Read further HERE !

I belong to the RSPB and was asked a while ago not to use this sort of bag as a feeding station for tits. Apparently they can easily get caught up in the netting and have been found to be missing toes and even legs through the use of them. However, that does not take away from these fabulous captures of this tiny bird. ^=^
