Willow Tit Print

A Willow Tit amongst Moss.

Created as part of a body of work examining the increasing list of endangered birds.

Willow tits are a tiny stocky birds, who spend most of their time in the same area - favouring damp scrubs. Using rotten deadwood, Willow Tits excavate their own nest holes every year and as a result, are difficult to aid with the use of traditional nest-boxes.

Willow Tits are now locally extinct in many areas, particularly in the southeast of the UK, as 94% of the population has declined since the 70s - with this decrease most likely due to the deterioration of woodlands and the loss of vegetation.

Available in A4 and A3.
