🦉 The coal tit or cole tit (Periparus ater)

• Peri (Greek) very, hugely
• Parus (lat.) Tit
• ater (lat.) black, dark

As written in books and Wikipedia, this little tit lives mainly in coniferous forests, and outside the breeding season it can be found in other places.
However, this is not entirely true. In the spring, I constantly meet these birds in mixed forests; the males actively sing songs, that is, this is where they spend the mating season.

Moreover, in the summer I met fledglings and saw how their parents fed them. So this species lives not only in coniferous forests.
And starting in the fall, they unite in small flocks and roam together. Moreover, they roam separately from the mixed flock of birds, and it is very rare to meet them in winter, despite the fact that the bird is sedentary and spends the winter.
