I dont know who named these tits but if it was me I would have named it a yellow belly tit.

Nice pic Dave but I would say this is a Goldfinch. I could be contradicted which usually happens on WW!

Sorry Giovanni but you are correct in assuming you would be corrected, it is a blue tit.

Comment by: Ken R on 8th April 2015 at 12:11

Most definately a Blue Tit. The Goldfinch has a yellow body and head.

Gentlemen
I bow to your superior knowledge. Well that excludes me from the chairmanship of the RSPB!!
