Pseudo-tit




A "review" in which I attempted to school Amazon on the basics of bird systematics...

Ahem, this isn't a Blue Tit. It's not even a tit. It's a, wait for it, Bearded Reedling. Also known as Bearded Tit, some field guides actually refer to this fantastic little songbird as a "pseudo-tit". I wonder what humans would feel like, being referred to as "pseudo-monkeys" by some alien race? Well, kudos to Wild Republic for making such a good likeness of this bird, that I could identify it with the help of an old Heinzel-Fitter-Parslow!
