Willow tit, Lanarkshire

Lanarkshire
Willow tits (Poecile montanus) in Britain live mainly in England and Wales with some in South Scotland, often in bushes rather than in trees. They have no blue, green or yellow, so can be easily told from Blue or Great tits. Although they have a thickset neck and big head which help to distinguish them from the very similar Marsh tit, it is easier to distinguish them by their calls. The sexes are alike.
It was photographed near Wishaw in Lanarkshire, at a location where they can no longer be found.
