Long-tailed tit — size comparison — facts and sources

The long-tailed tit has a tiny rounded body and very long tail. It inhabits deciduous forests, scrub, parks and gardens, searching thin twigs for small insects, spiders and invertebrate eggs.

Non-breeding family flocks constantly call while feeding. Baglike moss-and-spider-silk nests are heavily feather-lined. Elastic walls can expand as chicks grow.
