The Bearded Reedling is also known as Bearded Tit. A misleading name since it is neither bearded nor a tit. The males rather have black 'moustaches' than 'beards'. and the name tit derives from Linnaeus , who assigned the bird to the family of tits, Parus. After being moved to the family of parrotbils it has now been assigned to its own family, Panurus.
