🦉 The willow tit (Poecile montanus)

📚 Poecile poikilis (Greek) an unidentified small bird mentioned in ancient texts
📚 montanus (lat .) : mōns, montis mountain, mountain range, montanus mountain

It was early spring. Then it was already warm, and from afar I saw how birds fly to the river to drink. I hurried there and hid behind the bare branches of the bushes.
Some time passed, and this pretty gray bird flew in. She did not dare to go down to the water, jumping back and forth along the branches. And no, it was not related to me, because this kind of bird is not afraid of people.

These birds calmly visit feeders in yards and parks. And also in my city there are places where they are so accustomed to people that they themselves beg from passers-by.
