From the figures that the RSPB have released recently it seems that Willow Tit is in dire trouble in the UK, much more so than we around Barnsley realise as we still seem to have a healthy(ish) population. In an attempt to help keep this population stable around Barnsley the RSPB are sending a 'Willow Tit task force' up to Old Moor in mid January to discuss the situation and to see where we can all help.
In order to help produce complete and up to date information we need to know where as many Willow Tits are as possible. Please use this blog to tell us where ANY Willow Tits were in the breeding season during 2013. Locality, number of pairs, singing, nesting or young seen is the information urgently required. We're aware where they are at Old Moor and Wintersett but any other sites please look through your diaries and post your sightings. Thank You for your help.
