What is tits?

Tits, also known as titmice, are small, active, and colorful birds found throughout Europe, Asia, and North America. They are 4 to 5 inches (10 to 13 centimeters) long, weigh between 0.3 to 0.7 ounces (8 to 22 grams), and have short bills and strong legs.

There are around 40 species of tits that vary in their coloration, plumage, and behavior. Some of the most common species include the blue tit, great tit, coal tit, and titmouse. They are often found in woodlands, gardens, and parks where they feed on insects, seeds, and nuts.

Tits are known for their acrobatic behavior as they cling to branches, hover, and flit through trees in search of food. They are also social birds and often live in small flocks, communicating with each other with a range of calls and songs.

Tits are popular with birdwatchers and are important seed dispersers in forests. They are also useful to gardeners as they help control insect populations.
