The Great Tit is the largest and most common of the tit family in many parts of Eurasia, recognized by its distinctive black head, white cheeks, bright yellow underparts with a broad black central stripe, and olive-green back. It is a bold, adaptable, and highly vocal bird.
Where to spot
Widely distributed across Europe, Asia, and parts of North Africa. Common in almost any wooded habitat, including deciduous and coniferous forests, parks, gardens, and urban areas.
How to spot
Identify by its large size for a tit, black cap, white cheeks, and the prominent black stripe down its yellow breast. Listen for its loud, distinctive 'tee-cher tee-cher' song, often described as sounding like a bicycle pump. Frequently visits bird feeders.
When to spot
Present year-round in most of its range, being a resident species. Very active during the day, particularly at dawn.
