Hello Klas
Inspired by youe message, I listened to Great Tits songs in Warsaw and it's
suburbs. In my opinion the shorter song (ti-tuu) is more common than longer
(ti-ti-tuu), but it's not difficult to find both songs as well in Warsaws'
parks (nowadays the biggest city in Poland) as in more natural habitats
like woodland reserves.
Regards
Krystian
