The Eurasian Blue Tit is one of the more common birds here in Austria and Europe. It is a small bird that can be found in a variety of environments, and is typically found in deciduous woodland, parks, gardens and even in the center of towns. I already took several pictures of this cute bird in the last years on different locations. Since these birds are very small I really need to get very close to them to get a great picture, but on the other hand they are not really shy in the city, so it is not so difficult to get a little closer to them.

Eventhough these are more common birds in Austria I am always happy when I see them and when I can take some pictures of them. A Eurasian blue tit will often ascend a trunk in short jerky hops, imitating a treecreeper. As a rule the bird roosts in ivy or evergreens, but in harsh winters will roost wherever there is a suitable small hole, be it in a tree or nesting box. They are very agile and can hang from almost anywhere.
