Great tit
The great tit is the largest UK tit, but it still only weighs 18
grams – less than your average mouse! It has a yellow
belly with a green back, set off by a shiny black head and
striking white cheeks. Though originally a woodland bird, its
successful adaptation to manmade habitats means you
may see it in your garden (perhaps fighting off smaller tits
from your bird table!). Listen out for its two-syllable song.CN53 RSPB.P14-15.indd 14CN53 RSPB.P14-15.indd 14 11/02/2020 14:1211/02/2020 14:12
