🦉 The lesser whitethroat (Curruca curruca)

📚 curruca - is an unidentified bird name mentioned in poems by the ancient Roman poet Juvenal

I always meet these birds in the bushes growing near the river. And it doesn't matter where it is. I met them along the coast near a large river flowing along the city, and in the forest near a small river.
The bird is very similar to the Common whitethroat, but there are differences in appearance and voice. And the easiest way to distinguish it is the color of the legs, in this bird it is dark.

In general, it should be said that this species is not numerous, unlike the same Common whitethroat. And as I said, I met exclusively by the river in a couple of places in the city.
