Cute bird. Relative of the blue tit.
For many years, this bird was scientifically known as Parus Cyanus. In 2005, it was identified as an early offshoot from the lineage of other tits. Interbreeding with the blue tit in western Russia resulted in birds called Pleske’s Tit and was once considered a distinct species.
The Azure Tit is the eastern counterpart of the common Eurasian Blue Tit. An interbreed with that species usually produces offspring showing a blue crown, rather than the white of an Azure Tit.
