The cinereous tit or Asian tit (Parus cinereus) is a species of bird in the tit family Paridae. This species is made up of several populations that were earlier treated as subspecies of the great tit (Parus major). These birds are grey backed with white undersides. The great tit in the new sense is distinguishable by the greenish-back and yellowish underside. The distribution of this species extends from parts of West Asia across South Asia and into Southeast Asia. The Japanese tit was formerly treated as a separate species but is now grouped together with the cinereous tit.
The cinereous tit was formally described in 1818 by the French ornithologist Louis Vieillot under the binomial name Parus cinereus. He specified the type location as Batavia, now Jakarta, on the Indonesian island of Java. The cinereous tit was formerly considered as conspecific with the great tit (Parus major).

Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report an Eastern Great Tit sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 233 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 23rd most-seen of the 204 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report an Eastern Great Tit in Hong Kong on a given day, against about 10% in July, the lowest month. That is one of Hong Kong's driest months, with about 35 mm of rain against 280 mm in June.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Eastern Great Tit sightings, Hong Kong ranks 2nd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Eastern Great Tit is recorded against all the birds logged in Hong Kong (233 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
