- Description:
- The nesting range in this country of the Bearded Tit is restricted to a few reed beds in the Norfolk Broads, where it is kept very scarce by the depredations of egg collectors, in spite of the protection of the bye-law prohibiting the taking eggs in the county. Of all the small birds that live among reeds, it is the cleverest gymnast. It has a pretty way of working up and down a reed with very rapid, jerky jumps, and it frequently, when low down, comes to a sudden stop, balanced between two reeds, grasping one in each claw, as shewn in one of the photographs.
