Pembrokeshire Avifauna committee in 1980s BTO winter atlas, GHR, Marsh Tit

The BTO winter atlas showed that Marsh Tits were present in the majority of 10km squares during the winters of 1981-82, 1982-82 and 1983-84.

The darker the colour, the higher the relative total count for each 10km square.  The darkest blue represents over 8 birds.

However, it should be noted that the figures show a high correlation with the number of recording cards returned (therefore related to recording effort) for each 10km square.
