Beautiful photos, beautiful bird. According to the eBird map I accessed from
Birds of the World, this subspecies of Azure Tit is found in the mountains of
Tajikistan (on the border with Afghanistan). This is about 200 miles from
Kabul. I wonder if it hitched a ride on one of the recent evacuation flights.
Maybe just a coincidence. I don’t know if Azure Tits are commonly kept as pets,
in which case this could be an escapee.

Good evening,
So the Tit I found today, along Sheridan Drive between Warnimont Park and
Sheridan Park, was an Azure Tit (yellow-breasted). I initially thought it
was a Blue Tit, but when I looked up Blue Tit, it didn't quite match. At
any rate, it was a stunning bird to see, when not expecting it! Pictures
can be seen at the link below.
