Long Tailed Tit
Aegithalos caudatus
The Long Tailed Tit is not in fact directly related to the other common
members of the Tit family resident in the UK.
They are a resident bird and are largely insectivorous. For much of the
time, Long Tailed Tits will move about in large family groups, often working
their way backwards and forwards along tree lined hedgerows, or flitting
from tree to tree in deciduous woodland.
For digiscoping purposes, Long Tailed Tits can be extremely frustrating,
due to their habit of being constantly on the move. This is often compounded
by the fact that they will take up superb poses, only to disappear the
second before the shutter release is pressed!
