Pembrokeshire Avifauna committee in Blue Tit, Mathew, passerine, resident

Parus caruleus

A common resident, to be seen in our shrubberies every day in the year.

In severe weather these little birds seek shelter, coming boldly into our house or into the greenhouses. In the latter they did good service in hunting out spiders and aphides.
