Japanese Tit

Parus minor

Description:

Phenotype seems to most closely resemble Parus minor. Also, location matches the range of Parus minor. The yellowish tinting was more at the nape of the neck than anywhere on the chest. Body was stout, rounded, cute. Black stripe down to the abdomen was substantial and not to thin. The stripe became thicker and quite rounded when it disappeared before it touched the base of the gray tail feathers (visible in some of my other pictures). Range of Parus major, cinereus, minor, and bokharensis: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co...

Habitat:

Small copse of trees near a village. Came alone, though was not far from a Great Spotted Woodpecker.
