  1. The marsh tit looks a lot like our chickadee. I'm sure they're related.

  2. Both lovely birds but the plumage on the Yellowhammer is especially beautiful.

  3. That yellowhammer is beautiful and Mike is right the Marsh Tit does look a Chickadee, as do the ones in the UK. Great photos. Boom & Gary of The Vermilon River, Canada.

  4. Lovely images of birds i love to see. The call of the Yellowhammer is described in the UK as "a little piece of bread and no cheeeese" I love them.
