How to identify
Willow Tits are between Blue and Great Tits in size, with no yellow, green or blue. They have a large sooty-black cap (top of the head) extending to the back of the neck and a small untidy black bib. They are mid-brown above, with whiter cheeks and pale buff-grey underparts. The wings show a pale panel not found in Marsh Tits.
Its recent population declines make it a Red List species on the of UK Birds of Conservation Concern list.Key
