The common chaffinch or simply the chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) , female.

Females of these birds arrive later than males. Upon arrival, they select males who pre-selected the territory and protect it by performing songs.
Chaffinches are omnivorous birds, but still they are more attracted to plant nutrition. They arrive in early spring, when the sun warms, but there is still a lot of snow, and naturally, in such weather there are still no insects. In the summer, they themselves feed on insects and feed them nestlings.
Chaffinch is a migratory bird, but lingers for quite some time until the onset of cold weather. In general, they migrate to the nearest countries or the south of the country, but if the winter is warm, such as this year, then they can stay in the winter, except for Siberia of course.
