European crested tit, Lophophanes cristatus, perched on a signboard. It makes a nest in a hole in rotting stumps. This bird often feeds low down in trees, but although not shy, it is not always easily approached. It will join winter tit flocks with other species. Like other tits it is found in usually pairs and it feeds on insects (including caterpillars) and seeds. A few vagrant crested tits have been seen in England.

Talk about a bird with style! This European crested tit knows how to make a statement, perched proudly on a signboard like it's posing for a fashion photoshoot. With its vibrant crest and sleek feathers, this little avian superstar is the epitome of chic. But don't be fooled by its glamorous appearance – this crested tit has some serious skills. It chooses unconventional nesting spots in rotting stumps, proving that even in the world of birds, creativity knows no bounds. And when it comes to feeding time, this bird is all about variety. From insects to seeds, it's got an eclectic palate that keeps its taste buds satisfied. While not exactly camera-shy, our stylish friend here prefers to keep its distance from humans. So if you're lucky enough to catch sight of one up close, consider yourself truly blessed! But fear not – during winter months, these sociable creatures join forces with other species in lively flocks. Although typically found in pairs and mostly resident in their habitats, there have been rare sightings of vagrant crested tits venturing into England. Clearly, they've got wanderlust too! So next time you're out exploring nature's wonders or simply need a reminder of Mother Earth's incredible diversity, let this print transport you into the enchanting world of the European crested tit.
