馃 The Eurasian nuthatch or wood nuthatch (Sitta europaea)

  • Sitta sitt膿 (Greek) mentioned by Aristotle and other ancient Greek. by the authors of the bird, something similar to the woodpecker
  • europaea (lat.) European

These nimble guys can be found in any forest, and even moreover, they can easily be found in city parks and groves. And in winter they can easily visit bird feeders in yards.
Despite the fact that it is still a wild forest bird, it is very trusting of humans, which is surprising.

Nuthatches are not afraid of people like other wild birds; they can quite calmly sit on a tree next to you and go about their business without paying attention to you. In parks and groves where they are already accustomed to seeing people in large numbers, they even become impudent and beg for food from passers-by, easily taking a treat from a hand.
