🦉 The azure tit (Cyanistes cyanus)
📚 Cyanistes kyaneos (Greek), cyaneus (Latin) dark blue
📚 cyanus Greek: kyanos dark blue
This bird is also known here under the names: Princeling, White Tit.
This is a very rare species of tit in my city. Realistically, I haven't seen them here since 2018. However, in the neighboring region where I go every year, I always meet them in the same place - on flooded meadows.
The bird belongs to the tit (Paridae) family, and therefore all the habits, behavior, and even the voice is similar to most birds of this family. Very easily attracted to the sound. As soon as she hears a familiar voice, the bird immediately flies in his direction.
Her nutrition is the same as that of other tits: insects in spring and summer, the rest of the time plant food. But in the books write that she is more herbivorous than her close relative, the blue tit. Of course! After all, she lives in cold regions where the winter is long.
