Marsh Tit

Tweet of the Day: The Marsh Tit : This is a small, mainly brown bird, with a shiny black cap, dark 'bib' and pale belly. In the UK its identification is made tricky by the very similar appearance of our race of willow tit. They're so hard to identify that ornithologists didn't realise there were two species until 1897!….so there!
This painting and many more are on show at my studio during The Hampshire Open Studios event starting at the weekend of 20th August and the following weekend including the Monday Bank Holiday. Hope to see you.
