This bird needs no introduction! A welcome guest in every garden, no birdtable or nestbox is complete without one. The blue tit really is the bird next door.
But this programme shows what blue tits get up to when we're not looking out of the window. It tells how one particular pair live out their year - how the male feeds and cares for his mate, how their first tiny nestling is born, how the young face the hazards of cat and sparrow-hawk. A story full of event and excitement - yet the hero and heroine weigh scarcely more than a £1 coin!
