    They love my holly and big shrub rose, lots of prickly protection and tast titbits. (Apologies food the pun!)

    Blue tits love green caterpillars - they like to feed them to their young, so I would suggest any shrub that attracts caterpillars.

    For more info on blue tits and their diets, have a look at this blue tit feeders resource.

    I grow brassicas in the veg patch.  No need for nets as the tits and sparrows hoover up any caterpillars and they also take the aphids from roses and clematis.
