Penduline Tit nest

The Penduline Tit is relatively widespread throughout Europe and Asia, although a rare but increasing visitor to the UK, and can be found in open country with trees or bushes ranging from marshes and reedbeds to woodland.

The common name of the family reflects the tendency of most species to construct elaborate pear-shaped nests. These nests are woven from spider’s webs, wool and animal hair and soft plant materials and is suspended from twigs and branches in trees.
