> Not that I'm a birder, Philippe, but I think your 2012 shot IS definitely a blue tit, but the 2016 shot gives the impression it's a great tit. Have a look at the head markings. The great tit has a more definite cap where as the blue tit seems to have a narrower bar through the eyes. Now, I'll have to go back to my translating of the Qur'an :-)
