The Marsh tit has a large distribution area globally, but in Sweden it occurs only south of Dalälven. This little passerine in Uppsala is thus located in the northernmost part of its habitat. In the picture, you can distinguish at least two characteristics that distinguish it from its close relative, the willow tit (Poecile montanus): a light part on the bill and an evenly wide white part under the eye. In the summer it feeds mostly on insects, but in fall and winter it also eats seeds - and is happy to visit bird feeders if they are reasonably close to the forest.
