About These Birds

African Blue Tit

The African Blue Tit is a small tit weighing about 11g found in the Canary Islands and North Africa. It inhabits woodland and gardens, feeding on insects and seeds much like the Eurasian Blue Tit.

Great Tit

The great tit is the largest European tit and one of the most studied wild birds in the world. Research at Wytham Woods in Oxford has monitored great tit populations since the 1940s, contributing enormously to ecology and evolution. These innovative birds famously learned to open milk bottle tops in 20th-century Britain.
