This bird, though known as the Marsh-Titmouse, is
by no means exclusively, or indeed especially, addicted
to marshy districts, but may be found in the same varied
localities as the other British species of the genus Parus ;
it is locally common throughout England and in some
parts of Scotland, but appears to be rarely met with
in Ireland. Resident in all the localities in which it is
found.
