Great Tit - an intercontinental bird?

Great Tits (or now is called Cinereous Tit) are said to be very common in Europe that it often frequents bird-tables and seed-dispencers. Over here they are reported to be more common in mangroves areas. Although both Great Tits have a bold black line running down from its breast to its vent as well as a white patch on its cheek but the Asian ones have a white colored body as compare to a yellow body on European Great Tits. All these images were taken at a mangrove area.

I believe these birds might have nest in hollow tree trunks

all mates on the topic of this paragraph, while
I am also keen of getting experience.
