It is a very characteristic tit among our ones, because of a crest on its head. Its small weight does not exceed 20 grams with a wingspan of around 20 centimeters. Unfortunately, it can be rarely observed. I have managed to take pictures of a Crested Tit only in the forest. Although, I feed the birds in the winter I have never spotted it in the feeder. Its cousins Great and Blue Tits sometimes arrive in whole flocks, especially Great Tits.

It’s one of these birds that wouldn’t give the Eurasian Pygmy Owl, which perched near our tent hides while we were photographing Heather Cocks , a break. As the set of my Crested Tit trophies had been rather meager when compared with the set of my Eurasian Pygmy Owl trophies, I focused all my attention on this bird. Thus a few photos were taken, which have changed the previous gallery of the Crested Tit radically.

I have uploaded a few photos of crested tits taken in Spain, in a passerine hide. There were many tits and blackcaps, though European crested tits and Sardinian warblers were probably most skittish.

Nature continues to surprise me. It happened that in the forest I set up my shelter and waited for a tits, and as it happens with nature photography, with varying results. Meanwhile, on a warm afternoon, I go out to the terrace, and two tits are feeding on a spruce. Of course, I run to get my home camera and start taking pictures. Without masking in good light, out of hand many photos are taken from 6-7 meters. There is reason to satisfaction. In a few minutes, dozens of photos are created, which bring a great variety to the modest, so far, gallery of the Crested Tit on my website. This year was full of adjacent passerine photos in my garden. In September there was another opportunity. This time for a session with Crested Tits. The gallery has been rebuilt and goes to the news.
