🦉 The Eurasian bullfinch, common bullfinch or bullfinch (Pyrrhula pyrrhula)

• Pyrrhula (Greek): pyrrhos - red

We call these cute little plump birds something like "snower". Apparently this came from the people a long time ago, because these birds are easy to see and notice in winter. Now you can already hear their mating songs. Yes, they are very quiet and indistinct, so you need to listen carefully. Bullfinches are not very talkative in principle.

Bullfinches are almost entirely herbivorous, eating seeds, nuts, and fruits. But they feed their chicks insects.
In autumn, when it is already cold, you can see bullfinches landing on rowan trees and eating the berries' seeds.
