I'd have guessed Great Tit rather than Coal Tit, from the yellow breast and lack of white on the back of the head, but, still, a nice clear shot.

You're right! My mistake here was in translation, as the Dutch name is "koolmees", which literally translates to "coal tit". I've edited the post title

Hah, so a UK Great Tit is a Dutch Coal Tit - marvelous!
So what would you call this Coal Tit?

That would be a "zwarte mees" or "black tit". I guess that's a fitting name as well
