It's a pleasure to watch these nimble guys. They are very interesting. Moreover, they are friendly to people and are easily tamed.
The bird is not afraid of people and can easily sit on a tree next to you and go about its business without worrying about anything. Namely, hide food in the bark of trees, or look for it there, crack the shell of a nut or seed.

In early spring, their mating season begins, and their loud songs can be heard very clearly throughout the forest. This is probably the only moment when the bird simply sits calmly on a branch and does not move.
