Original – Willow Tit, Poecile montanus
Reason
High resolution pic of Poecile montanus with clean background. EV because it is a good ID pic of a species that is suffering dramatic population decline across Europe, and esp in Britain, where it is a RSPB 'red status' bird. Shows features that may differentiate it from similar, but more common, Marsh Tit: sooty cap, untidy bib, pale wing panel, larger white cheek, lack of pale patch on upper mandible. Definitive ID obtained from call.
