Long-tailed tits are easily recognisable with their distinctive black and white colouring with a hint of pink. They have a tail that is bigger than their body. They are often seen in small, excitable flocks and can number up to 20 birds. most flocks I see locally number between 6 to 8 birds. These small birds look like flying balls of fluff. and are said to be one of Britain’s cutest birds.





Length:14cm
Wingspan:16-19cm

Pink is not a color I typically associate with non-tropical birds, so that’s cool.
Great action photo at the end!

Funny re the pink I have been watching both long-tailed tits and Linnets both at Hamble Point and both with a flush of pink not a common colour in British birds.
